|
James Hoogerhyde |
Belmont, MI |
"This invention relates to a wood turning lathe by means of which a large quantity production may be obtained of duplicate pieces. It is a primary object and purpose of the present invention to make a machine of this character wherein pieces of wood stock square in cross section may be successively brought to suitable cutters and cut to the desired form very rapidly, a single operator of the machine only being required to place the stock in place to be engaged by the machine and thereafter brought to the cutters, the operator removing the finished work and also manually operating the holder of the unfinished stock toward the cutters, the organization of the machine being such that one operator can readily perform these operations without loss of time..." |

Steady rest
|
James Hoogerhyde |
Belmont, MI |
"This invention relates to improvements in steady rests for lathes and more particularly to steady rests for automatic wood turning lathes. Although the invention may be used on any type of wood turning lathe it is particularly adapted for use on automatic wood turning lathes such as shown in my Patent No. 1,546,447, issued July 21, 1925, wherein the article to be turned is brought against a series of knives which operate simultaneously on its entire length and the steady rest is for the purpose of supporting the central part of members, such as long slim spindles, which otherwise would tend to break from the strain put upon them." |
