To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, Farm L. SwnNsoN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Northfield,-in the county of Washington and State of Vermont, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stencils, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to stencils for stenciling letters or digits, and has for its object to provide in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a stencil body of a contour similar to a letter or digit and having means extended from said body to provide for the convenient holding of the same in position when tracing around the letter or digit, as well as enabling the letter or digit to be placed against a T-square whereby a plurality of letters or digits when in such position are arranged in a perpendicular line with respect to the T-square, and to further set up a stencil body capable of being positioned in a manner to enable one to trace around 11116 521118 reversed, to provide a tracing which can be employed in connection with sand blast for stone work.
Further objects of the invention are to provide a stencil which is simple in its 'construction and arrangement, strong, durable, compact, efiicient and convenient in its use,
i and inexpensive to manufacture.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists of the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts, as hereinafter more specifically described and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein is shown an embodiment of the invention, but it is to be understood, that changes, variations and modifications can be resorted towhich fall within the scope of the claims hereunto appended.

The arms 18, 19 are of less width than the arm 17. Formed integral with the bottom of the body 16, is a retaining projection in the form of a U consisting of an arm 20 and a pair of arms 21, 22, which are dis posed at rightangles with respect to the arm 20, are formed integral with the termini of the arm 20 and are also integral with the body 16. The arms 18, 19, are of less width than the arm 17 and the arms 21, 22, are of less width than the arm 20.
Referring to Fig. 4 of the drawings, the stencil body is in the form of a digit 1 and is indicated by the reference character 23. Extending from the top of the body is a retaining projection in a form of a T consisting of a pair of arms 24, 25. The arm 24 is disposed centrally with respect to the arm 25 and extends at rightangles thereto and said arm 24 is of less width than the width of the arm 25. The arm 24 is integral with the top. of the body 23. Extending from the bottom of the body 23 is a retaining pro jection in the form of a T consisting of a pair of arms 26, 27. The arm 26 is integral with the body 23 and also integral with the arm 27. The arm 26 is disposed at rightangles with respect to the arm 27, and is inteangles with respect to the arm 29 and formed integral with the termini of the latter. The
arms 30, 31, are of less width than the arm 29. Formed integral with the bottom of the body 28 is a retaining projection in the form of a U consisting of an arm 32, and a pair of arms33, 34, which are disposed at'rightangles with respect to the arm 32 and I formed integral with the termini of the latter. The arms 33, 34, are integral with the body 28 and are of less width than the width of the arm 32.
Referring to Fig. 6 of the drawings, the stencilbody is in the form of a digit 4 and is indicated by the. reference character 35. Formed integral with the upper portion of the body 35 is a retaining projection vin the form of a T consisting of a pair of arms 36, 37. The arm 36 is disposed at rightangles with respect to and is integral centrally with the arm 37, and is of less width than the width of the arm 37. The arm 36 is integral -with the body 35. Formed integral with and projecting from the low-er portion of the body 35 is a retaining projection in theform of an outer arm 38, and a pair of arms 39, 40, thelatter being of less length than the former.' The arms 39, 40. are disposed at rightangles'withrespect to the arm 38 and are integral with the termini of the latte-r and said arms 39, 40 are also integral with the body 35; The arms 39, 40, are of less width than the. arm 38.
Referring to Fig. 7 the stencil body is in the form of a dlgit 7 and is indicated at 41. Formed integral with and projecting 7 'from the top of the body 41, is a retaining projection in the form of a U consisting of an arm 42 and a pair of arms43, 44, which are disposed at rightangles with respect to.
the arm 42 and are formed integral with the termini of the latter. The arms 43, 44, are integral with the body 41 and are of'less width than the width of the arm 42. Formed 55 integral with and projecting from thebottom of the body 41 is a retaining projection in the form ofa T consisting of a pair of arms 45, 46. The arm 45 is integral with the body 41 and also integral with the arm 46, centrally thereof, and said arm 45 is of less width than thearm 46.
Referring to Fig. 8 of the drawings, the
- stencil body is indicated at 47, and is in the form of the letter S. Formed integral with and projecting from the bottom of the body 47 is a retaining projection in the form of a. U consisting of an arm 48 and a palr of arms 49, 50, which are disposed at rightangles with respect to the arm 48 and formed integral with the termini of the latter, and are furthermore formed integral with the body 47. The arms 49, 50 are of less width than the width of the arm 48.
The stencil body and its retaining projec 1 tion or projections can be. formed of any suitable material of the desired thickness, preferably metalor fibre}; I
The stencil body is made flat on each side so that it may be traced around not only in normal position, but in a position reversed from normal when desired. n
The employment of a stencil body inaccordance with this invention materially lessens the work when positioning the latter for stenciling purposes.
lVhen using a stencil inaccordance with tion resting firmly against a Tequare.
This provides for the stencils to be set in a perpendicular position to'theT-square. and
then by pressing downwardly on the. projection or projections ofthestencils, they are held in position while asoftlead'pencilis used to tracearound them. In this case the stencil should be reversed or reading from .right to left. After the inscription has been completed the paper is taken and laid face downon the stone where composition has been previously applied. After rubbing the surface of the paper, the paper is removed I and the inscription has been transferred to the composition.
'VVhen using the stencils'for'lettering, a monument, which is to be by a pneumatic tool, they are tracedon a light piece of tracing paper in a manner as before stated, except that the stencils are placed to read from left to right. f x i l p I lNhen employed for show card work, the stencils may be traced in the manner as hereinbeforestated, but reading from left to right. TV hen the outline hasbeen completed, the letter canbe completed in any suitable manner, or in other words, the letter can be filled in in anymanner desired.
The preferred embodiment of the inven tion is that as described and shown, but it is obvious that changes in the details of v construction can be had without departing from the spirit of the inventionasclaimed.
and having extended from one end thereof a spacing projection provided With a free outer terminus constituting a positioning medium for the body portion.
