94636 Joseph Neustein <jneustein@p...> 2001‑06‑28 RE: Perfection Miter Box
Hi all.   

Jim Thompson asks:

I just acquired a Perfection miter box made by the Union Hardware
Company. It is in really nice shape, except for the paper label on the
back which tells you what the letters stamped on the index mean. Does
anyone have an intact label?  I would like to know what the letters
indicate.

According to the decal:

M - Miter or 45 degrees
P -  Pentagon or 36 degrees
H - Hexagon or 30 degrees
O - Octagon or 22 degrees
W - Window or Door Sill Pitch   or 9 degrees
R - Right angle or Square cut

Joe
