Abstract
A carpenter tool includes a triangular body having a hypotenuse edge opposite a right corner, a first edge extending between the right corner and the hypotenuse edge, and a second edge extending between the right corner and the hypotenuse edge opposite the first edge. A fence is pivoted to the first edge for movement between first and second positions. In the first position, the fence is normal to the triangular body. In the second position, the fence is coplanar to the triangular body.
