99,157	Jan. 25, 1870	Planing machine	George W. Harris	Lowell, MA	"The nature of our invention consists in providing for planing-machines a bed-piece or table, formed in two parts, each of which is pivoted at the same distance from the centre of the cylinder, with cutters, they being so operated, by a screw, as to depress the front part and elevate the back part of the table simultaneously, thus keeping the top surface of the same parallel to and with each other." Photos of this jointer are available in the Photo Index at VintageMachinery.org/.

134,250	Dec. 24, 1872	Improvement in loose pulleys	Wilson W. Carey	Lowell, MA	"The principal object of my invention is to render the pulley what is termed a self-lubricating one, it containing a reservoir for holding oil, such reservoir having one or more or a series of educts, each of which contains a reservoir for holding oil, such reservoir having one or more or a series of educts, each of which contains or is to contain a strainer consisting of a plug of leather, or other suitable material, such as will not only serve as a filter or strainer, but as a means of slowly delivering the oil or lubricating fluid upon the revolving shaft of the pulley while the latter may be in revolution."

		Improvement in planing-machines	Wilson W. Carey	Lowell, MA
160,507	Mar. 09, 1875	Improvement in machines for planing wood	Wilson W. Carey	Lowell, MA	"My invention relates to certain devices for effecting the vertical adjustment of each of the tables of the planing-machine with reference to the cutter-cylinder. It further consists in a feed-wheel supported and adjusted with reference to a suitable guide, said feed-wheel with its carrying-arm being made removable from the main frame."

275,139	Apr. 03, 1883	Band sawing machine	Wilson W. Carey	Lowell, MA	The outermost part of the bandsaw table can be lowered to provide maximum cut height, or raised level with the rest of the table to provide maximum cut width. I love this idea. Where can I buy a saw like this? Not on the used market, apparently, for we have never seen an example.
282,161	Jul. 31, 1883	Wood-rim pulley	Wilson W. Carey	Lowell, MA
308,838	Dec. 02, 1884	Self-lubricating bearing	Charles E. Gee	Lowell, MA	"This invention relates to improvement in self-lubricating bearings particularly designed for hubs for loose pulleys, although the invention is equally well adapted, with a slight modification, to stationary bearings." This patent is very interesting because it ties together two 19th century woodworking machinery makers: C. E. Gee and W. W. Carey, both of whom manufactured machinery under his own name. It appears that this patent is from Gee's early career, before he started out on his own.
