Frank L. , Mo. Tool for Boring Holes in Bell Frames. I submit herewith photograph of alool for boring holes in bell tool has been in use some time,;ind we have found it a great time-saver over the old way of boring on ma-chines in machine shop, which method hascaused considerable trouble by not havingholes bored in line. To do said work, one need only to placebell frame in vise and apply tool. Placeframe in position for boring (in vise) ;. TOOL FOR BORING HOLES IN BELL FR.\ME. apply boring bar with taper bushings;place clamps, two on each end, the onewith threaded collar attached on threadend of bar. Tighten up bolts, and yourbar is set ready for work. I use two tools made of ->^-inch octagonsteel, held in place by two keys; lengthsame as diameter of bar. Set tools andproceed to bore. When tools come againstbushings, loosen clamps and put bushingson opposite end; put over clamps, tightenup and continue to cut. When finished,you will find holes true, bored in line, andno trouble in fitting up bell. Time re-quired, 30 minutes. J. E. Haynes,C, L. & W. Shops. Lorain, O. making no difference.
