masonite-caliper

 

Outside calipers, finely crafted from old-growth masonite.

No one seems to make really big calipers any more.  We had to turn a couple of column bases for a porch in Newton, MA recently. The porch roof was up on jacks, though, so we didn’t want to peruse flea markets and tool auctions.  Evan got the job done anyhow.
