Combination Window Pocket Cutter and Pulley Mortiser.
The Smith & Phillips Mfg. Company, with offices at 99 West Adams street, Chicago, 111., are directing the attention of the trade to the combination window pocket cutter and pulley mortiser, shown in Fig. 16 of the illustrations. The construction of the device is such that the manufacturers claim one man can finish complete 200 pockets per hour, and that they require no planing, no fitting, no nails, no hand work and no bench work. The machine here illustrated is shown with sash pulley attachment, by means of which the mortise is cut for pulleys. The floor space occupied is 4 x 4 feet, and the speed of tight and loose pulley is about 900 revolutions per minute. The manufacturers refer to the small floor space occupied and to the fact that, in addition to cutting pockets and mortises for pulleys, it can be used as a dado and saw table. It is not confined to any patent or size of pulley and is referred to by the makers as rapid in operation and simple in construction.
