The glue pot operates from any electric lighting circuitand is put in operation by merely turning the switch. Thisglue pot functions either as a water bath, hot air, or dryheat pot and whichever way it is used, does not overheat,even if the current be left on indefinitely. The durable cast aluminum glue container is supportedby special lugs which prevent floating when the pot is only partly filled with glue. The escape of moisture is minimizedby this method. The base cover forms a dead air heat in-sulating chamber between the heating units and the bench,and the air gap which surrounds the heating unit providesfurther insulation between the heat units and the base cast-. Wallace Glue Pot Arranged for Automatic Controlof Temperature at Any Desired Point ing. The method of insulating electrical parts providesample fire protection. This glue pot is adapted for heatingany substance which requires a definite working temperature,such as glue, wax, pitch, tar, sealing compounds, or resin.
