Transcript | A. W. FABER'S MANUFACTORY ESTABLISHED 1761. A. W. FABER'S T Squares. It is a rule well known to draughtsmen, that T Squares should be used on one side of the drawing-board only—the left hand side—so that all horizontal lines are drawn along the upper edge of the blade. The lower edge, not intended for use, is frequently preferred tapered. Peartree T Squares can be thus furnished with tapered blades and also with straight blades. T Squares with scale are supplied, graduated edge bevelled. No. Length in inches. 15 18 21 24 30 36 42 48 400.
