Abstract
Axiometer--A Mechanical Device for Locating and Measuring Pebble and Cobble Axes for Macrofabric Studies: NOTES
Henry R. Schmoll, Richard H. Bennett
ABSTRACT
The axiometer is a mechanical device consisting of a clamp which holds a stone with its long axis vertical, and a track-mounted caliper, which, restricted in motion, locates and measures the two axes perpendicular to the long axis. Advantages of the axiometer over other methods tested by the authors are (1) axis locations determined by the axiometer are more accurate, so that the potential accuracy of the orientation goniometer may be realized, (2) less operator fatigue is induced by the procedure, and (3) less time is required.
