Re: Water glass? Site glass?

Ayuh! They seem to be one and the same nowadays. I did read in an old book years ago that said that distance between the rails should be "gage" whilst the instrument was "gauge," or maybe I had it reversed. Don't know, and it probably doesn't really matter anymore. Still, it is fun to see the comments and long threads that result from these seemingly unimportant topics!
