If you have information to add to this entry, please contact the Site Historian.

Among its other products, this company made—or resold—pulley and lock mortisers. The examples we have seen are essentially a line of drill bits geared together with a single shaft coming out the top. The shaft is chucked into a drill press.

The examples we have seen of the sash mortiser has the name cast into the side-plate. An otherwise identical sash mortiser has a plain side-plate with an applied plaque that says, "Built by Olney & Warrin / 66 and 68 Centre Street / New York".
