Device in machine for cutting round tenons
|
George Bailey |
Lockport, NY |
This machine was intended for making bedstead-rails, but it was also used for making garden implements such as hoes and rakes. An 1855 ad from Spalding's Machine Shop lists this machine: "Baily's Bed Rail Machine, for turning and tenoning square timber—eight hundred pieces in ten hours turned ready for the screw." An 1874 ad from T. R. Bailey & Vail shows a lathe with this patented feature. |

Method of feeding the bolt to the knife in shingle-machines
|
David Nicholson |
Lockport, NY |
An 1855 advertisement for Spalding's Machine Shop in Lockport lists, as one of their products, "Nicholson's Shingle Machine, for sawing Shingles, the best machine in use. It will cut 1000 shingles per hour for ten hours in succession. Price, complete, with jointer, $150." The ad predates this patent but in the absence of other information we assume that Spalding's also made this improved design. |
