. Canadian forest industries 1910. Lumbering; Forests and forestry; Forest products; Wood-pulp industry; Wood-using industries. CANADA LUMBERMAN AND WOODWORKER 47 A Perfect Band Re-Saw. A careful study of the above illustration will give you an idea of what a complete, well-designed and substantial machine this re-saw is. Some of its merits:— The Feed Works are driven by belt and changing from one feed to the other can be accomplished by simply turning a hand wheel one quarter of a turn. Each machine has five changes of feed. The Saw runs within i inch of the centre of the back roll, cutting the stock while it is firmly held. When doing bevel sawing the feed works can be drawn back by a lever to prevent the saw striking the rolls and the safety lock is so arranged that the rolls can not be tilted until the feed works are drawn back from the saw. The Frame is cast in one piece, cored out hollow underneath, is heavily ribbed and perfectly rigid. The Rolls are driven by spur and bevel gears all cased in. All gears cut from the solid and as near noiseless as possible. The Hespeler Machinery Co., Limited Hespeler, Ontario, Canada.
