The Waterous 7 ft. Band Mill fills these require- ments in every particular. It will take a taw up to 12-in. blade, will split a 36-in. log, has all the fast cutting features of the larger sized mills and yet represents a saving of several hundred dollars in in- itial expense, in up-keep in saws and in filing tool equipment. Although containing all these fast-cutting features, we are able to build this, 7-foot mill cheaper than would be possible if we had not already done the expensive experi- mental work and tested these features out on our heavier mills.; All you pay for is the cost of construction. HOW The Waterous 7-foot Band Mill is built right and left hand for single or double cutting. The frame extends com- pletely around the mill, is very wide and deep, carries on it all feed rolls, etc., to make the machine entirely self-con- tained. Columns are a combination of box and girder sec- tion, of graceful business-like design, have wide bearings on the frame and grip the mandrel supporting posts above and below the mandrel. The long recess in the columns permits an exceptionally long vertical adjustment of the upper wheel. Both wheels are built on old designs that have proved themselves practically perfect in weight proportion and smooth running qualities. Mandrel boxes are adjustable in all directions, are extra long, babbitted with finest bearing babbit, and are chambered for water cooling. Tension and tilting device and raising and lowering mechanism are those su
