Content

The balance indicator 126 can be connected to one, or the other, or both, of superior plate 118 and the inferior plate 120. In one embodiment, the balance indicator 126 connects to the superior plate 118. The balance indicator 126 is illustrated as a dashed region of the gap gauge 100 because one or more components or elements in the dashed region can serve as the balance indicator 126 in different embodiments. For example, in one embodiment, a user may observe a non-parallel position of the superior plate 118, or part of the superior plate 118, and such observation may serve as the balance indicator 126.
