WIRE-GUY GRIPPER. The eccentric groovedlevers, as shown, make a quick-handled grip on guys forderricks. It is easily applied or removed by the use ofthe pin in one of the lever sheaves. With the addition of parallel jaws under the eccentricgrips, this device makes a good grip for hauling ropesand cables. 852. TIMBER CREOSOTING APPARATUS. Timber or pilesare bundled and shoved into a long cylinder and the cylinder head. closed tight. Steam is then introduced at a high pressure—100 to150 lbs. per square inch. This heat coagulates the sap and drives themoisture from the lumber, when creosote oil is pumped into the cyl-inder and saturates the wood. The oil is then driven out of thecyhnder by the steam pressure and heat and the lumber withdrawn. 330 ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION, ETC.
