Harford J. Perkins |
Williamsport, PA |
Inventor Perkins was a partner of Willis J. Perkins in Perkins & Co. The assignee was partner in sawmill machinery maker Snyder Brothers. This machine was seen in an 1882 Rowley & Hermance catalog, marketed as the "Climax Saw Gummer and Filer". It is uncertain if they actually manufactured the machine, though. An 1875 ad for Union Iron Works, Wm. H. Hiner & Co., says that they are manufacturers of Perkins' Saw Gummer. |

Willard Lamb |
Green Bay, WI |
An 1875 ad from Willard Lamb shows this invention. "Foundrymen and saw mill machinists are requested to apply to me for manufacturers' licenses and terms of royalty." There is a list of 15 references, which we assume were users of the invention. Follow the link provided to Wm. H. Hiner & Co. and then look at the "Images" tab on that page to view the ad. One of the companies listed in the ad is E. P. Allis & Co., and an ad from that firm in the same book as the Lamb ad includes this text: "We make Willard Lamb's patent wire rope carriage movement that dispenses entirely with the cog gear. The Saw Carriage is much lighter and can be handled much more rapidly and at a much less expense than the old movements." |
