Surface plate height gauge adapter for dial indicator holding

[mklotz]

Not meaning to lead this thread further off the intended subject I just want to throw in the acronym for Stow High In Transit originated sometime in the 16th century
as a way to let sailors know to store the bundles of dried manure high enough below decks to prevent it from becoming wet from sea water since it would not only be much heavier but would ferment and produce methane gas. Imagine carrying a lantern down in the hold where bundles of wet fermenting manure were filling the bowels of a ship with methane gas. A guarantee to ruing everyone's day

If it sounds hard to believe it probably is.

This is nothing more than a smelly whopper that's been circling the internet drain for a long time. Whenever you hear seeming whoppers like this, check Snopes to get the real poop.
