Description: |
|
This is a somewhat strange piece, with a couple of very unusual
features. The gage uses a reversible head with curved and
straight faces much like the Ames Patent (70937), but adds a
second reference face in the shape of a cylinder on the end of
the arm.
The patent claims are worded in a very confusing way, such that I
can't really figure out how this tool actually works. The
inventor makes claims about marking holes for draw-boring
mortises and marking off tapered edges, but I can't see how this
would work.
