. Canadian forest industries January-June 1912. Lumbering; Forests and forestry; Forest products; Wood-pulp industry; Wood-using industries. Machinery and Equipment What Manufacturers of Logging, Sawmill and Woodworking Appliances are Doing Horizontal Band Resawing Attachment \Ym. B. Mershon & Company of Saginaw, Mich., are producing a new horizontal band resawing attachment intended for use in connection with planers and matchers. There being a limited demand for a tool which will plane and resaw at the same operation, this company have under- taken to supply the demand without making" it incumbent upon the purchaser to buy a special planer for the pur- pose, as the resawing attachment may be used in connec- tion with any standard make of planer. The bed of the machine is adjustable so as to conform to the height of any planer and matcher and the wheels are likewise adjustable; both simultaneously, for straight sawing, and independently for level sawing, as for the making of bevel siding, etc. The construction of the ma- chine will be readily understood from the accompanying cut. The saw is guided by patented ball bearing crowding wheels, the advantages claimed for these being that they support and stiffen the saw and cannot clog with sawdust. The machine is also supplied with the latest spring bal- ance straining device—steel locomotive rim wheels—ham- mered crucible steel arbors with self adjusting and self oiling journal boxes. The resaw is supplied with suitable guards to provide protection to the operator and to give a finished appearance to the machine itself. The attachment is designed to stand a feed of 200 lin- eal feet or less per minute according to the character and width of the timber sawn. The machine weighs 5,000 lbs.
