The business has remained in the family to this day and continues to be based in Sheffield, England and managed by Tony a 6
    th
    generation Marples. Although modern technology is now utilized for many operations, many of the traditions of manufacturing fine hand tools have remained the same using selected materials and hand finishing. The same threads used in their marking gauges today were those used over 100 years ago.
