A Veritas replica of a tool that was never actually made: a bevel square patented in 1890 by Justus Traut, a 38-year employee of the Stanley Rule and Level Company.
A Veritas replica of a tool that was never actually made: a bevel square patented in 1890 by Justus Traut, a 38-year employee of the Stanley Rule and Level Company. It improved on a bevel square Traut had patented and Stanley produced two years earlier, but the improved version was never released, for reasons still debated.
Based on Traut's sole prototype from the Stanley model shop, it adds a small eccentric washer bearing on the rule to eliminate play between the moving parts. The eccentric screw allows periodic adjustment so the rule is always held square to the head.
As well as being an intriguing piece of history, it works as a typical combination square. A lip on the long side of the head registers against the work for marking ±45°, while the rule is used conventionally for 90°. The 8" × 1" hardened (Rc40-45) stainless-steel rule is ungraduated but works well for taking and transferring dimensions. The investment-cast stainless-steel head is about 2 1/2" × 4 7/8" × 9/16" and weighs about half a pound. Made in Canada.
