Jackie wondered:

"Does anyone have a very specific definition and set of examples that
differentiate GAGE and GAUGE?"

I'm no pro on this by any means but I found this by Googling and thought
that it might be applicable -->

"Gage, Gauge- Gauge is the spelling used in Great Britain but finds some use
in the U.S. It is chiefly found for nonlinear measurement instruments (fluid
gages, etc.). However, it is finding increased use for coordinate measuring
machines where it designates a device with a proportional range and some
form of indicator."
