Starrett beam trammels

[wrench136]

Looking to find out what model # these are. Also what years they were made. They are marked with a C like the markings on their pin vises. A,B,C,& D. Any info on what catalog they are in would be helpful. Thanks

I always start in the depression era catalogs, so 1930 would be the guess.

They don't look like Starrett.
I wonder if they are not shop made using two Starrett pin vises.

Good call. Looking closely at them, I agree with you. Nicely shop made, nothing to whine about there. Looks like the #251 for design content.

I also now agree with leg17. Nice quality work made me think they might be a special model.
The pin vise in the pics is a B size.
