Shear
|
Baltasar Schubert |
Chicago, IL |
Baltasar Schubert was co-inventor, along with Kurt Nebel, on the original patent for the famous Beverly Shear, patent 1,842,943. Nebel went on to manufacture the shear out of his house, a practice that continued until Nebel's death and was then continued for two more generations until 2019, and then transitioned to being manufactured by Mittler Brothers. We do not know if Schubert maintained any involvement in the business or if this shear patent was used by Beverly Shear or by anyone else. This shear is designed to be pulled, rather than pushed, through the work, which provided a better view of the cut. |
