D is the rough bloomentering, and E is it just leaving in its finished state. FFFF are flanges to strengthen the eccentriccasing. The bloom being thrown in at the wide end is laid hold of by the cylinder, and by its actionpressed against the outside casing, and revolving on its own axis, is taken through the machine, beingthus gradually brought to its finished state, and at the same time deprived of its scoria. The underend of the bloom is upset by the action of the flange of the cylinder, and the upper end by that of thelifting-ring K K, in the most perfect manner. The advantages are:—1. T
