Description:
This is a clever gage for laying our shingles while roofing. It is a fairly simple design, and holds a standard carpenter's pencil as a marking element.

In us, instead of measuring and snapping a chalk line to mark the next row of shingles, a carpenter would slide this gage against the end of the preceding row of shingles. This would be much quicker, and could easily be done by a single person.
