Is the Winslow gauge simply an indicator dial on a half bar or base I 
think I remember mentioned in an earlier post?

Also, am I correct in understanding calipers and a glass gauge from 
Babbitt can be used to make the same tip measurement as the Winslow 
gauge?

BTW, thanks Keith, for the feedback on the SaxJ articles.

Look at the home page of the Mouthpiece Works site.  There is a picture of
the Winslow gage there.  Your description is correct.

(If your are reading this post at some later date, I may have moved the the
picture to the photo area on the site.)

The Winslow gauge is a dial indicator mounted on a fixture, made of bar
stock aluminum.  The Babbit kit, I think, has a glass gauge and a
�tapered wand� type gauge to measure tip, not calipers.
