The end bearing is made so that the standfor it can be slipped off the end of the shaft to clearthe spools when they are to be put on or removed.

UNIVERAL COIL-WINDING MACHINE—AIR MOTOR ANDAUXILIARIES coils used for contactors, reversers or circuit will also take the long porcelain tubes used on head-light resistances. For driving it, a Pelton water wheelabout 9 in. in diameter using air instead of water fromthe shop air system, furnishes a cheap and efficient mo-tor, and it is easily constructed. A hardwood box, largeenough to contain the wheel and having two bearingsmounted at each side, a regular nozzle and an exhaustpipe, is all that is required. The air is controlled bya globe valve handy for the operator. For stopping andstarting the winder an idler pulley mounted on a bracketand having a foot pedal retrieved by a spring bears onthe belt and makes the machine easy of control. Wehave found that this machine has saved us many timesover its cost in reducing the
