Abstract
A longitudinal gage fixture extends the entire length of the cutting blade and provides positively locked, parallel surfaces that uniformly and reliably set the proper height of the gage blade along its length while in a blade holder, In use, the device requires no frictional movement of the gage along the length of the blade, and adjustment of the blade may be achieved in an accurate, single-step process. The entire blade and holder assembly is positioned within the gage fixture and adjusting screwy at the base of the holder are accessed through apertures in a base plate of the gage fixture so that all necessary adjustments of the blade may be made with the holder insitu without any movement of the holder. Only movement of the blade within the holder is required during adjustment. Once properly adjusted, the tightening down of the blade may also be accomplished with the blade and holder still within the gage fixture.
