A support stand for positioning a precision gauge for checking the dimensions of an article. The base is stable having three supporting feet and being heavier than many such support bases. The base is tapered with finger grooves to fit well into the user's hand and provides an adjustment screw which rotates about a horizontal axis so reaction forces are directed downwardly into the support plate rather than creating a shearing, destabilizing force. The adjustment screw has as large a diameter as practical to reduce the magnitude of the tangential force needed to produce rotation and its rotation reacts a nub against the substantially vertical support post to tilt it, and the precision gauge supported thereby. An L-shaped bracket can be inverted to provide increased flexibility in measuring different size articles. Squareness checking rails are provided on the front and back surfaces to enhance the flexibility of using this support stand.
