Scott NC Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 It looks like a specialized circle or arc scriber to me. Not much to go on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daswulf Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Is there a name or patent # on it? I'm thinking what NoDebt is thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anvil Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Its a prime example of a classic doo hicky. You will find it at the bottom of your forge next to the round-to-it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott NC Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 I have large collection of doo hicky's. It's a fun and facinating hobby in a way. They are everywhere once you learn what to look for. I learned to put a size limit on them. You can get overloaded/overwhelmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davor Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Looks like an edge scribe, or how to call it. You put the point up against the wall and scribe the shape on to a tile or a wood board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 The point is pointing the wrong direction for an edge scribe. I think maybe it's a depth gauge but that's a reach. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welshj Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I'd guess it is an edge scribe. Probably for woodworking. The pointed end looks to be bent and twisted up... I would guess that the flat piece that has a point to it was the adjustable end used to scribe, and the pointed end would have been the hook that goes over the edge... before it was... um... modified. It doesn't look to have a very wide range, I'd guess to measure and scribe along the thickness of a board for joinery work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davor Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I guess I didn’t express myself correctly, I was thinking about wall scribe (hope that’s what it’s called). https://i.stack.imgur.com/JkLKh.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
