May, 1895 THE T^U^BlERIEwOLIsI COMBINED PLANING AND MOULDING MACHINE. THE engraving herewith presented represents a plan- ing and moulding machine, in the designing of which special care has been taken to combine every im- provement and appliance necessary to produce the most perfect work at as fast a speed as is attainable without the aid of fixed knives. A recent improvement consists in the arrangement of the gear for driving the feed rollers, by which all wheels are placed outside the fram- ing of the machine, thus materially reducing its width, and enabling the man working it to get more readily at the cutters. These machines are all fitted with top, bottom, and two side cutter-blocks, to work simultaneous- ly on all four sides of the wood, thus enabling them to cut single or double mouldings of any pattern, or to plane, groove, tongue, edge, thickness, and bead match- boarding, etc., in one operation. The adze blocks and their spindles are made in one forging of special steel, and run in improved self-lubri- cating bearings, thus enabling the cutters to be driven at a very high velocity, producing very perfect work at much higher speed than is generally attainable with machines of this class. The feed motion consists of four rolleis, all of which are driven, giving a great propelling power, which carries the largest stuff through the mach- ine without any slip. The rate of feed can be readily varied from 10 to 50 feet a minute, according to the de- scription of work, or quality and condition of the wood. some time and it was in use here long before I saw it, and many a bill of supplies I could have cut down had I known of it before. If any one who has used it found any bad results, let him speak up ; but don't theorize about it. I have results to go by and offer them.
