By usingwooden blocks the side sheets may be pressed outward with thejack shown at the right, in the same manner as performed by thedevice shown in Fig. 2r.

An Angle Device used in connection with the pneumatic drills,making it possible to drill at right angles in places where it isimpossible to use the standard drill. These tools are used exclusively for steel car work and arein addition to the hand hammer, cold chisels, wrenches and driftswith which each man is furnished.
