There is powerfeed in all directions and a quick return,by power, in all cases. The machineweighs pounds, and an auxiliarybed plate weighs 30,000 pounds more. The vertical mill is also a remarkablyheavy tool, and was built for the BrooksLocomotive Works. The spindle is 7inches in diameter, circular table 42 inchesand will swing 56 inches clear of the up-right. It is back geared, weighs 20,000pounds, and, as will be seen, has a swingcrane for handling its own work. jackets are painted on the inside with redlead before being applied to the boiler,th
