Mm â â â â ' HPliMO'llliii. Ill w- ⢠Our "Best of All" Figs. 202 and 203 with 4 Bits to each Head. Flooring' Possibilities The progress made by manufacturers of Flooring is in evidence all around us. The changing from the old type of floor to the modern san- itary idea of smaller units, close fitting joints, and the artistic display made by combining different colors, has led to the use of many wo^ci-. heretofore thought unfit for the finer varieties of Flooring. Maple and Oak have been the favorites, but the system of manufac- turing Hard Wood Flooring made possible by the Shimer Cutter Heads, is being taken up by the manufacturers of beech, birch, ash, [;um, yellow pine, white pine, tupelo, etc., and some striking effects are predicted. Even the upstairs floors and the kitchen of the modern residence are receiving more attetvion, and the wood-worker who is supplied with the latest Shimer Cutler Heads, and has a taste for originating striking effects, can reap a good harvest in his locality by making his native woods into some of the novelties demanded by architects and builders. To cut all kinds of wood smoothly, and at a good rate of feed, re- quires a tool with the proper cutting angle to the Bits, the proper clearance to prevent friction and burning, and many other points only understood by those who have made a life-study of the needs of the m ichine woodworker. It matters little what the modern floor is made of so long as it is a substantial, durable wood and one that will finish well and we would advise eve y planing mill man to look into this matter. Many property owners are also laying new thin flooring in narrow strips over their old and unsanitary floors. The business is developing right along and should be a profitable line for any planing mill. T
