Antique Taylor's Square Wood & Brass 24 inch

Unavailable

This is a very clean boxwood and brass trim square, made for use by a Taylor. It is 12" x 24" x .15 thick. This one is not marked by the maker, much like a Lufkin taylor's square, it is similar, but we see enough difference to believe that lufkin make this one. It's in nice condition with a nice finish on most of the wood, some scratches note near the 14" mark, and a smaller one near the 2" graduation on the short side, otherwise, a few minor stains, very little wear overall. We did check this square again a large precision square, and it is not as square as we would like to see, about 1/8" out of square over the full 12" length. There is a very mild amount of warpage on the long leg, short leg is fine. The brass, very good markings and number graduations in inches, good edges, straight wood sections. A nice one!
