Description: |
|
This is perhaps the simplest butt gage ever patented. It is a
simple piece of flat steel with sharp points at 3 corners, and
adjustable fences referencing each point. While it was certainly
compact, it would have been a real pain to use for scribing the
lines, as the fences were tiny and there was nothing to prevent
the tool from pivoting around them as it marked.
