WOOD SAWS.
The machines represented in Figs. 4072 and 4077 are presumably the finest Sawing
Machines that are made, em-bracing all modern improvements, and intended for
the most accurate kinds of work that can be done with a saw. It seems like
taking a step from " The Sublime to the Ridiculous" when we go from
them, and take up the ordinary Wood Saws which are used mainly for rough work,
such as sawing fence posts, cord-wood, etc., etc.
The following machines are sold very extensively in country districts; are
light but strong, and can be easily moved. Are very often used in connection
with windmills. The frame is a combination of iron and wood; the arbor on sizes "A" and "B" is
of 11 in. steel; sizes "B" "C" and "H", 1 in.
steel; sizes "E" and "F", 1j- in. steel. The cut shows
styles "G", "H" and "F". Prices include Saw.
