LARGE CAR TENONER AND GAINER. As a gainer this machine will cut gains inany part of heavy timbers. It will worktimbers up to 23 ins. wide by 15 ins. thickand the C-shaped construction of theframe makes it possible to work timbersof any length. As a tenoner, this machine will cutsingle or double tenons and if so orderedis also arranged to cut triple tenons. As acut-off saw it will do all kinds of heavycut-off work, a 20-in. blade cutting offup to 6 ins. thick. The carriage is movedby a rack and pinion feed, the returnmovement being about three times fasterthan the forward or cutting movement. There is no over-estimating the valueof a machine of this kind in a car shop,the most critical of efficiency engineerscould find no fault with it. Because ofthe variety of work that can be doneupon it, this machine will be kept busyall day long every working day in theyear and the extra heavy constructiongiv
