NEW THINGS IN MACHINE TOOLS. FLEXIBLE-SHAFT MACHINE The R. G. Haskins Company, ofChi;!ago, 111., has recently made someimprovements to their flexible-shaftgrinding machines for die-sinking. Bymeans of a swivel base the machine canbe rotated through a complete feature, in addition to a specialleaf spring support at the motor endof the shaft, assists in eliminating un-necessary bending of the shaft. Troubleis generally de\ eloped at the inner endof the shaft, where it connects with themotor shaft, and the added protectionprolongs its life.
