In conclusion there is a longlist of locomotive and car parts, machine tool parts, etc.,which it has been found can be successfully and economi-cally welded. There seems to be practically no limit to the applicationof electric welding when a good welding machine is intelli-gently used by a competent operator who thoroughlv under-stands metals as well as the handling of the arc. The illus-trations show some of the welders and a few samples of thework which has been done. The results up to the presenttime indicate that the net returns from the electric weldinginstallation will be far greater than had been Grinding andMilling Work Production Costs Reduced, ShopOutput Increased, Accurate Work
