case-making gauge ( case gauge )
A gauge used in the production of identical book
cases in relatively small quantities. The case is
made by hand, the gauge being used to indicate
where the boards and INLAY (1) are to be
placed on the covering material which has been cut
to size and glued. Case-making gauges are
adjustable for different sizes of cases, turn-ins,
and widths of inlay. (259 , 261 )
