An inclinometer 20 includes a module 22 which is mounted to a rail 32. The rail 32 has a hollow I-shaped cross-section which affords substantial resistance to torsional and bending loads about the longitudinal axis 34 of the inclinometer 20. The rail 32 and in particular a first end 36 of the I-shaped cross-section includes first and second curves 48, 50 which define lobes which provide a rail design more suitable for gripping and placement by the user.

A prong or tang-type paper sheets binding system includes a cover marginal edge on which or over which the connector base and the prongs or tangs are abutted or bent with respect to the edge. An integral imperforate edge extension is provided which is foldable over the bent prongs and any keeper and foldable over the prong base or head to cover the exposed unattractive metal components of the connector including the prongs or tangs. In a preferred embodiment a second integral edge extension which contains a slot sized to encompass the bent prongs and a keeper if employed, or the prong base is foldable over the imperforate extension so that a planar smooth-finished surface of the imperforate extension covers the otherwise exposed metal components of the connector.
