It's also one of the three processes used to find the cuts of the Timbers.
Based on the intersections plans of the faces of the components.
The results are angles and length.
This process does not need to put the timbers on the ground plan: we measure the length, set the bevel gauge at the cutting angles and mark them on the timbers.
The real name of this tool is “false square” in French, but we carpenters call it “sauterelle”, which means “grasshopper” according to the fact that this tool looks like the hind legs of the grasshopper.
Many animals names are used in French carpentry terminology.
The name of the process is “à la sauterelle”.
Unlike the "rembarrement" method, there is no need here to draw the dimensions of the timbers.
