This back gauge is designed to be mounted on the top of the saw itself, which proves more convenient for most saw filers.   This "top- of- saw" model is standard, and will be supplied unless otherwise requested.  For those who prefer the back gauge to rest on a the leveling block, a "top- of- block" model is also available as an option at no extra cost.

Two Lengths Available
The No. 76 Armstrong Back Gauge is available in both 36" and 48" lengths.  When ordering please state length desired.

Features
New ideas as well as some tried and proven features of earlier Armstrong Back Gauges are incorporated in this model including:

Lightweight, Easy to Handle
The majority of parts are made of high strength aluminum alloy for light weight and durability.

Accurate and Easy to Read
The dial indicator is rugged and converts any variations on the back of the saw into thousandths of an inch.  Markings are distinct and clear.   The gauge can be set for any crown, or straight back, as desired.  A metric is available upon request.
