Rubber hand stamps and the manipulation of rubber; a practical treatise on the manufacture of India rubber hand stamps, small articles of India rubber, the hektograph, special inks, cements, and allied subjects . shape ofa shallow letter V may intervene between nuts andplaten, the centre of the bend bearing against thecentre of the platen. As regards the strength oi the springs there isthis to be said. The distance pieces will prevent aspring that would ordinarily be too powerful fromdoing any harm. Such distance pieces should beused, as the springs must be based upon giving apressure of many pounds per square inch of surfaceto be acted on. They should have a range of aneighth of an inch or more. The greater the rangethe more evenly will they work.
