Scribers and Scriber Pens
Scribers These tools are used to mark the contour of the bottom log onto the top log for removal of wood for the "fitted" or "scribe-fit" style. We are often asked how to use a scriber. We suggest that you purchase the Handbook of Canadian Log Building. It has an excellent, full color pictorial on how to use a scriber as well as many other aspects of log construction. To help you get started with your log project, we are giving a $10.00 Discount to those who buy one of our scribers and the book. Just ask for the "Scriber Special".

For more concise, detailed technical information on log construction we recommend the Log Construction Manual by Robert Chambers.

For Best Results:
Use with Lumocolor Permanent Fine Point Marker, Veritas Ink Pencil, or Sanford Noblot Ink Pencil. To use marker, remove collet and inset marker into Pen Holder, tip first. Two markers may be used and are suggested. (If top marker begins to dry out, invert tool to bring bottom marker to top. The see through vial works in both directions.) Scriber may be used horizontally by rotating vials 90 degrees. Pay special attention to flange on collets. The thin flange fits the Stainless Steel Stylus, medium flange fits Veritas Pencil, thick flange fits Noblot Ink Pencil. Extra collets may be obtained for double pencil operation.

Log Meister Scriber
Log Meister Scriber This scriber self levels from one size scribe to the next when set up properly. It has a double vial which is viewed from top and bottom for ease in marking over head or marking a bottom scribe. The vials can also be rotated 90° for horizontal work. There are fine adjustment screws for both vials. This allows for easy setup and provides a positive return position if the vial is bumped during use or in between scribes. The pen and stylus holders accommodate 3/8" diameter marking pens and also have collets to accommodate Veritas and Faber Castell size pencils. Additional collets may be ordered for Veritas and Faber Castell pencils. A stainless steel stylus is also included for single pencil marking. Made of anodized aluminum, brass, and stainless steel. Won't rust or corrode. Opens to 15".

FISHER Plotter Pens
Unlike ordinary ball pens which rely on gravity to feed ink, the cartridge is pressurized. At nearly 50 lbs. per square inch, ink is continuously fed to the tungsten carbide ball, allowing the user to write at any angle, even upside down. The ink is also reported to write on wet wood, sap, bar oil, and even works underwater (for those really adventurous log builders).
