Stair Makers Handrail Shave  This piece is unmarked as to maker but it is very nicely done.  The body is cast brass and the cutters well made and sharp.  I assume it would be used for the final scraping of stair rail from the shape and form.    

Exc.   ..... $125.00     SOLD!

2 Patented Center Head Combo Tools  Tough to find these have been in the collection for 20 -30 years.   The smaller one I believe a Standard Tool Co. example.  The blade is marked Standard Tool Co. Athol.  It is a 2 piece affair that was pinned together.  The tag on it indicates it came from Roger Smith back in 1979. 

The larger one has a later Brown and Sharpe 12" blade in it. I believe it was made by Standard Tool Co as well.  It too is a two piece design that was pinned together. These are an interesting combination tool---a try and mitre square, center finder, depth gauge, and more.

The Standard Take-Down Framing Square T. D. 101 The copperized finish on this framing square was an upgrade option that Southington offered and not many people choose as this is the first one that I have seen.  It is simply marked "The Standard" and is in excellent condition.  The canvas case did its job, and is a bit tattered looking.  The 101 model according to the small pocket catalog that is included also offered their patented rafter tables that their 100 model did not.  Very Nice!!  Good +  .......... $ 125.00        SOLD           

St. Johnsbury Patented Bevel    Mr. I. J. Robinson of St. Johnsbury VT,  is known as the premier maker of bevels, squares and other measuring tools for the woodworking and machinist trades,  and pulled the patent for this design bevel on June 14th 1870.  There were none finer to be had during his day, and his line of tools remain today one of the favorites of the old tool collecting crowd.  This example has some light pitting on the 6" blade, but the 4" body and the rosewood infill are in super condition.  The name and patent info on the body are clear and strong.  A Mr. A. Young has carefully and tastefully stamped his name into the rosewood for an added nice touch.   A nice example.      Good+ ....... $395.00      SOLD

Kenny's Patent Marking Gauge Pat Jan 4th 1870    This interesting piece is unmarked, as they all are, but it is a well known and very desirable patented tool from the 19th century.  Typically they have a Rosewood and Boxwood head, but this version has two boxwood ones.  As is often the case, these heads are both cracked, and one has been glued.  It is still operational and looks OK as is.  The brass rod is in super condition and has never been cleaned or abused.  Ready as is to be used, or with a simple restoration, this could be a highlight.   Good+ ..... $225.00     SOLD

12" St Johnsbury Machinist Square  This is a prime example of a true masterpiece of workmanship and skill from a different era.  There is no damage, rust pitting or other flaws.  An unusual square, in an unusual size and in unusually nice condition.       Good+ ... $295.00    SOLD
