(under subclass 618) Device including two or more tools located in position by means of a plate element provided with holes or other means which are engageable with dowels or the like as associated with the tools or their holders, so that a number of tools may be readily brought into a predetermined relationship.
(1) Note. The template may or may not serve as a structural part of the machine framing, but it should remain in place as a machine element as distinguished from a setting-up appliance.
