Since coming to Flint, where buzz-saws run by power are near by, we have 6o little use for our foot-power buzz-saw that we have decided to sell it. This machine is one that we made ourselves five or six years ago. It is of good size, and sub- stantial, and could be run with power if desira- ble. The frame is of oak; the saw mandrel of steel, one inch in diameter and ten in length; the saws eight inches in diameter. Besides the regular saws there is a thick one just right for making the openings in queen-excluding honey-boards; also a thin one for cutting the grooves for tlie zinc in the edges of the slats of the wocd-zine honey- boards. There is an arrangement for cutting mi- ters of different angles; also one for holding up the end of a long Ijoard while cutting pieces from the opposite end. The treadle comes up behind the operator, whicli makes the work of treading far easier; the motion being more like that of walking. If necessary, in heavy work, two men can tread at the same time. As this m^achine has been used only in making our own hives, it is, in reality, just as good as new; and is well worth $; but, as we now have so little use for it, we offer it for ;, which we consider a bargain. This saw was illustrated and descriljed a few years ago in Gleanings; and anyone who tliinks of purchasing will l)e furnished, upon application, with the numbers of Gleanings containing the description.
