The slots in the tool chest are too unique to have hope of finding the
missing tools in the wild. These shop-made squares will do as place
holders. I liked the blade detail on Bill Ghio's square so I
incorporated something similar.

These are the slots to be filled.

I'm not certain they all held squares, but they do now.

The other end of the big one.

There are 10 squares in this section of the tool chest. Four are
original and marked J. Hilton, two others came with the chest and I made
the remaining four. The small ones are ebony and brass. The big one is
from 20-year old cherry. It is 32+ inches long. It will get a finish
when the flood waters recede.
Thanks to folks that helped with my design/decision process.
