Letters Patent No. 108,010, dated october 4,1810.
IMPRVEMNI` IN CLAPBOARD-GA'VUGES.
` l l l The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making paxil: of the same.
To allfwltom it 'may concern 1 Beit known that I, ABRAM DEYo,-of` Rockford,
in the-county of Winnebago and State of-'Illinois, have invented 1a new and useful Improvement in C1apboardGauge; and I'do hereby declare that the following isa full and exact; description of `the saine, reference` being had to the accompanying drawing audio the letters of reference marked thereon.
` ,This invention relates tothat classof gauges whichv l 1s especially ,designed `for use 1n putting on siding or clapboarding, and eonsists,fmainly,iu certain details vof1construction,which will be fully described herein-' after. 1 1 1 Figure lirepresents a top view of my improved gauge. t l 1 Figure 2, aside view of the same, partially in section. 1 .1
A represents the gaugeV proper, which consistsof a suitable metallic strip, which isbent at a al to form' a socket or restforI the edge of' a clapboard.
The long arm coif this gauge is marked o with the usual divisions of measurement, as shown, while the short arm is` provided with va rounded and beveled edge at its upper end, for the` purpose of facilitatin (Y its introduction between the clapboards. e
To the lower end of the arm az a handle, B, is attached, by means of a suitable tang, as shown.'
` G represents a slotted stop, which slides upon the: 1
arm a?, and is secured thereto in any desired position by means of a set-screw, c. 1 1
day of March, 1870.
two must be used,onc at each end Vrof the board) 4should now be adjusted according to' the width of the clapboarding' to be exposed to the weather. We will suppose, for example, thatthe boards are'six inches in Width, and that it is desired to expose four and one half inches to the weather. is first moved to four and one-half inches upon the 1 Vscale'of the gauge, .The short arm is thencrowded under the board just laid, until the edge of the latter rests against the lower part of the socket. The next piece of siding is 4now put in place, with its `lower edge resting upon the stops, in which position it is securely Y held by the gauge.
VHaving thus fully describedm y invention,
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Let-v ters Patent, is-e i y The gauge described, consisting 'of the strip A,
handle B, and s'topO, when constructed and arranged'- as described, for the purpose .set forth. 1
This specification' signed and witnessed. this 10th y ABRA'M pero, VVitnesses:`
