Marples
Joseph Marples was one of several Sheffield Marples who crafted joiner's tools such as brass inlaid rosewood and ebony bracing, gauges, squares, beech planes, and boxwood spokeshaves. The firm continues to make tools traditionally, utilising the same high-quality materials and hand finishing - and even the same threads in the gauges used over a century ago. Despite its compact size, the firm produces the widest range of gauges and squares accessible.
