About Lufkin 8 foot rules

Lufkin was an American measuring-tool maker based in Saginaw, Michigan, producing rules, tapes, squares and machinist layout tools from the late 19th century well into the 20th. The range here is typical: boxwood folding and caliper rules, steel tapes, bevels, levels and precision shop gauges. Boxwood-and-brass rules in crisp condition with legible markings carry more than worn or stained examples, and unusual patterns such as the No. 42 shipwright's bevel or wide-body caliper rules stand above common folding rules. Machinist items like the No. 58 level or No. 900 planer gauge do better complete and in their original boxes.
