The grooves g, g areintended to hold the oil inplace; oiling is sometimeseffected by small rolls recessed into the lower pieceand held against the platen by springs. The principal advantageof this form of way is itsability to hold oil and thegreat disadvantage its fa-culty for catching chips anddirt. Fig 27 shows an invertedV such as is common on theways of engine lathes. Theangle is about the same as in the preceding form but. Fig. 26.
