It will be noted, however, that the rest R is held toC by bolts. This is done to enable the rest (when designed for the purpose) to be swung around sothat the direction of the slide and hence of the screw 0 may be at any desired angle to the lengthof the shears A A. When a slide-rest is thus constructed, it is termed a compound slide-rest, andthe upper or compounded part R and R is employed to turn tapers or cones, the planes of whoseexterior or surface are at an angle (other than 90°) to the length of the shears A A.
