Then take a block of wood, say 1% thick by 6 inches wide, 16 or 18 inches long, and bore a hole to one side and through the block, letting the bit cut out about yi of an inch, as in Fig. 1. Fasten this block on the table over the knives, so a rod in the block will lay at an angle of about 45 degrees to the head. Then run bed of machine up until

The best to experiment on will be the 3 strand when cut with a common stocker knife with three heads V2 inch or thereabouts, son can get along with twister I have describ- ed if he doesn't want to make moulding for market, but only for his own use. The tighter you have the twister the more positive the feed, and, as it will turn pretty hard, one can use a block to turn with. Drop out one or two beads and run some ; you will be sur- prised at the result. FIG. 1. 0 - 0 FIG. 1 1 I — I I I I I Fig. 4.

The following description of this device, which was sent by a correspondent to with the centre bead dropped back a little. Next, the arrangement for twisting the stock through the block : Take a block of hard wood 4 inches wide, 8 inches long, "/z inch thick. Slot each end about two inches. Take two thin pieces of steel—old jig saw blades will do. Make them sharp on the back and drive them into the block lengthwise in saw kerfs, about % inch apart—see Fig. 2. The object of the slots is for adjustment for mak- ing the beads intersect. Fig. 3 shows the PATENT BEVEL SAWING MACHINE. The illustration represents a new combination saw- ing machine, which is adapted for all kinds of mitre and bevel sawing, and has been
