TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, JOHN NESTER, of Portland, in the county of Multnomah, and State of Oregon, have invented a new and improved Weather-Board Hook; and I do --hereby declare the following to be a full, clear,
and exact description ofthe same, suiiieient to enable those skilled in the art to which my invention appertains Y to make use of it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in whichi v Figure 1 is a side view of my invention.
IFigure 2 is a back view, and
Figure 3 a front view of the same. l
This invention consists inV an improved form of weather-board hook, incombination with a duid-level, graduated rule, marker, and gauge, the whole constituting a earpenters combined tool, of great utility and convenience. v i.: I A
In the drawings, the-body of the tool, which is of wood, isrepresentedat M, It is about twelve inches'in length, one inch in' thickness,'as seen in figs. 2 and 3, and from one to two inches in width, as seen in ig. 1. The back, front, and one ofthe sides, seen in iig. 1, arecovered with a smooth brass plate. The sidesand back are perfectly straight and smooth. The middle portion of the front side, about seven inches in extent, is also smooth and straight, parallel to the back, and about an inch distant from it, and isterminated at either end by the perpendicular walls of, two shoulders, I I, seen in figs. 1 and 3. In the centre of' the portion last described is a spirit-level, H, designed for any use to which the carpenter may find it convenient to apply it.A The back of the tool is formed into a scale or rule, O, shown clearly in fig. 2, graduated from a spur, G, as a startingpoint, into inches and fractions of an inch. A slide-gauge, F, moves back and forth along this graduated plate, being operated by a screw, E,'provided with aprojecting handle, D. The slide-gauge can thus be slet at any distance from the spur G, and forms a convenient andl'useful spacing-gauge for laying off the dimensions of'the work. That side which is covered with the brass plate, shown in iig. 1, is provided witha long groove, C, in which a handle, A, slides back and forth. The handle is composed of three pieces--a plate working back and forth in the slot under the brass plate, and having a central ridge, which projects slightly outof the slot; another plate, a, resting upon theridge ofthe first plate; and a screw, having a handle, a', whiehscrews through the plate a, and forces it down upon the under platef- The plate a has a notch across its under side, in which lies a sharp-pointed blade, B, the end of which projects'over the-edge of the instrument, and serves as a marker.. By unscrewing the handle a the plate a can be raised andthe blade removed. By screwing the handle down again, the marking-blade is confined between the-two plates of the handle A, so that it is held 'irnily, while at the same time it can be slid back and forth along the space between the shoulders I I. In gauging the Width of the board, or the width of theclevel along its edge, the spur Gand gauge F will ordinarilyA be used. But in marking across the board, the instrument may-be simply hung upon the edge of the board by one ofthe shoulders I I, and the line may be marked square across with the utmost accuracy, by means of the sliding knife B. 'lhe weather-board can he levelled by the level H, and any measurement .that is needed may be taken by the scale or rule O.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire `to secure by Letters Patent, is- The weather-board hook M, having the shoulders I I, when used in combination with the scale O, slidegaugeF, spur G, and sliding marker B, the whole being arranged in one instrument, and forming a combined tool of the character and for the purposes set forth.
" JOHN NESTER.
