In Figs. 3267, 3268, and 3269, a represents a frame properly adapted to the purpose, but which maybe changed at the discretion of the constructor. On the table b of this frame, and near one end thereof,there are two ways c c, in which slides a carriage d, that carries the carrying and holding wheel «, forthe purpose of withdrawing from the jaws the blank that has been turned, and presenting a new one tothe jaws. The carrying and holding wheel c is made with a projecting rim/, in which spaces are cut out atequal given distances apart, and extending from the face of the wheel to the middle of the width of theprojecting rim, and in these recesses are fitted dies g, which are secured by screws to the wheel—theholes that receive the screw-blanks are made half in the end of the dies and the other half in the edgeof the recesses, so that by sliding the dies the holes can be adapted to different sizes of screw-bl
