I like that design but I'd guess it'd be a little fussy under working conditions?

Re: Patents
I don't think it would take much abuse but back in 1850 tools were spendy and not available everywhere. I think blacksmiths were still a valid source. Then the hardware you were working with was made to looser standards so this adjustable would be even better to have, to cover variations.
