| Description: |  | Another famous Stanley patent, which was used on many different
	 styles of gage. This patent covers a very simple adjustable point
	 mechanism, which allows the point to be easily adjusted up and
	 down, and removed for sharpening.
	 This is probably the most-used marking gage patent in
	 history. Stanley used this one almost every gage in its line for
	 over 100 years. |  |
