Köbel’s second work, on gauging. The fine printer’s device at the end shows a gauger with his instruments. “When describing the gauging rods, the book has two places where a corrective diagram was pasted over an otherwise plain illustration of a section of a rod (b3 verso and c1 recto), and these are lacking in this copy, although the bits of glue remain” (Tomash & Williams).
