I thinka great deal of delays, especially at thebusy points, are due to (he time that is■taken to turn engines, and I thought thatold idea was worth a little reconsideration—the way he outlined it to me. A New Rip readers being interested in theprogress made in the building of ma-. No. no. NEW SELF FEED RIP SAW chines designed to help them in theirwork, are at all times willing to investi-gate the merits of the new ones broughtout. But newness alone will not answerthe purpose; this must be one of the pointsonly, for this will not, make up for anymechanical defects. It is therefore ourpleasure to here illustrate a rip saw whichis both new and improved, and which isfully warranted by its makers. Rippingmachinery has always been one of theirmost successful specialties, and this toolis their newest and one of their best prod-ucts. They introduce it on the marketwith the confidence that it will meet withthe success their others have met becausethere is a demand now for a machine ofjust this character. It is of medium sizeand designed for general work in woodworking factories, and short or long stockcan be ripped at a verj high speed withequal facility. Speeds to 160
