verb

• (transitive) To work roughly, or shape without finishing, as stone before leaving the quarry.
  "Where the forms of the stones are irregular, a duplicate set of templets is sent to the quarries in order that they may be roughly scappled into shape by the quarryman, which saves expense of carriage, and also much of the subsequent labour of the mason."
• (transitive) To dress (e.g. stone) in any way short of fine tooling or rubbing.
  "The door scuncheons and lintels of the cart-house and loose cattle sheds are to be neatly draughted and scappled (stones are said to scappled or scabbled, when they are dressed with the pick end of the hammer; they are called draughted and scappled when worked round the edges or joints with a chisel and hammer-dressed in the centre), and the corners canted with droved work."
