I was not asking about the octagon or '8-square' scale, but the octagon
rafter table. It appears on very old squares designed for framing
octagon roofs.
The square has an octagon scale. It is for creating an octagon
from a solid timber. It has nothing to do with rafters. The
rafter scale is different and in a different location on the
square.
