Benjamin W. Dow, who has for the last five years been works manager of the Oswego Tool company, has tendered his resignation to take effect at the convenience of the company.
The Oswego Tool company has been particularly fortunate in securing the services of Edwin W. Fulton of Lowville, N. Y., who will take over Mr, Dow's duties as soon as convenient.
Mr. Fulton controls the Atlas Vise Company, Inc., and the Velox Vise Company, Inc., of Lowville, N. Y,, and by this connection the Oswego Tool Company acquires the rights to manufacture and sell the celebrated Velox quick action machinists bench vise and the Nutyp combination pipe and bench vise, and the business of these companies will be transferred to, Oswego.
The Velox vise is a patented quick action bench vise used by the larger manufacturers where speed of production is essential and the NuTyp vise meets with a ready sale in garages, repair shops and homes where a combination pipe and machinist vise is needed.
In addition to the above patented vises, under Mr. Fulton's direction the Oswego Tool company will also manufacture a line of standard machinists bench vises in a full range of sizes of stationary and swivel base types. It is estimated that the addition of these lines will necessitate the employment of at least 50 new men land increase the sales of the company materially.
The Oswego Tool company already manufactures combination vises and is thoroughly equipped to manufacture these additional lines.
Mr. Fulton, who will shortly become a permanent resident of Oswego, was for many years with the Prentice Vise company, who are one of the largest manufacturers of vises of this type and was six years With the Bagley & Sewall company of Watertown.
Up to three years ago Mr. Fulton was connected with the Fulton Vise and Machine company of Lowville, which has recently been reorganized the Lowville Vise company. |
