Aly extractor is of the two- frame type, with wide, deep pockets to hold any size frame, whether deep or wide. These are much harder to bal- ance than those of larger capacity. I should probably have had one of larger capacity before this, but I do not wish to buy until I can get a power- extractor. I always kept my extractor firmly fas- tened to the platform on which it stood, but I found even this not sufficient to keep it from vibrating. Last year and this I have been brac- ing my extractor from above, a kink I learned from my father-in-law, and my troubles with a vibrating extractor are at an end. The drawing will illustrate the meth- od of bracing. You will note the braces are set out at the top, thus bracing the extractor sidewise as well as hold- ing it firmly down. To protect the plaster I fasten a board to the ceiling, and the braces are then fastened to a board across the back side of the extractor, the top driven tightly into place and toe-nailed. BENCH FOR NAILING FRAMES, WIRING, ETC. For use in nailing franies I devised a bench, which was described and illus- trated in Gleanings three or four years ago, but as I have made one or two little changes in the bench I will send a short description and drawing. See fig. :i.
