Withfew exceptions the tool rotates and the work is stationary. Thenotable exceptions are the vertical boring lathes already the demands made upon drilling machines are nearly asvaried as those on lathes. There is little in common between themachines which are serviceable for the odd jobs done in the generalshop and those which arc required for the repetitive work of theshops which handle specialities. Provision often has to be madefor drilling simultaneously several holes at certain ? centres orholes at various angles or to definite depths, while the mags ofthe spindles of the heavier machines renders counter-balancingessential. Bejuk Machines are the simplest and smallest of the group. Theyare operated either by hand or by power. In the power machinesgenerally, except in the smallest, the drill is also fed downwardsby power, by means of toothed gears. The upper part gf, cUe ^riilin^ | . tM\oi\ sit bnfii i-ivii o-jom -jfiT.
