Small steel center square from Crucible for marking centrelines on square, round and octagonal workpieces, a simple, compact and beautiful tool for an everyday job. It is based on a vintage tool owned by a bodger friend, compact and with a weight and shape that make it feel like a worry stone in the hand.
It is machined from a solid chunk of steel in Kentucky and is ideal for chairmakers and turners who need to mark the centres of spindles or sticks for turning or shaving.
To use it, press the workpiece against the 90° opening on the underside and scribe a pencil or knife line along the blade. Rotate the workpiece and repeat. A larger brass center square with an engraved blade is also available.
