Rutland, Rutland County, VT |
Mason, Fenwick & Lawrence, patent attorneys
My invention relates to a machine for shaping and finishing marble, slate, or other stone like substances with either straight or serpentine outlines or surfaces; also for mortising, drilling, and countersinking such, stone; also for ornamenting and finishing round, oval, or other irregular-curved shapes in stone. The machine may be made single or double, the one represented and described herein being double, that is, having shaping-cutters and operating and clamping mechanisms on either side of the center of the frame. The machine, when used for other than round, oval, or like irregular-curved ornamentations and finishing, employs a reciprocating stone-supporting bed; and when used for round, oval, or other like irregular-curved work employs a revolving stone-supporting bed. |

|
David Shortsleeve |
Rutland, VT |
Fenwick & Lawrence - patent attorneys
My invention consists of certain novel constructions, combinations, and arrangements of parts in machines for sawing stone, and the nature of the same will be fully understood from the following specification, claims, and accompanying drawings. In the accompanying drawings, I have represented my invention as applied to two saw-frames, each having a gang of saws; but this is only done as an illustration of one among many other ways in which it may be utilized for supplying water and sand or water and shot to stone-sawing or stone-rubbing or stone-dressing machinery, the same principle of operation being involved whether one, two, or more frames or gangs of saws, or one, two, or more sets of rubbers or dressers are supplied in accordance with my invention.

Sand and Water Feed Mechanism
|
David Shortsleeve |
Rutland, VT |
Fenwick & Lawrence - patent attorneys
My invention consists in certain constructions and combinations of mechanical devices, as will be hereinafter described and specifically claimed, whereby a machine is produced with which water and sand or water and chilled-metal shot can be continuously fed or moved by a forced circulation thereof through valved chambers and pipes from a receiving and discharging chamber or hopper to points where stone-saws or stone-rubbers or stone-dressers are acting upon stone and there distributed properly upon the stone, and, after aiding the saws in cutting the stone, are automatically and continuously returned to the chamber or hopper for reuse. This invention is such that either one, two, or more frames containing stone-saws or stone-rubbers or stone-dressers may be continuously supplied with water and sand or with water and chilled-metal shot, by means of a separate pump for each frame or one large pump for several frames, and the said fed substances may be kept in circulation, returned for continuous reuse, agitated, and deprived of all mud and refuse on their way through the receiving and discharging chamber or hopper.
