Description: |
The object of the present invention is to improve the construction of shingle machines, and to provide a simple, inexpensive and efficient machine capable of automatically feeding a shingle block to the saw, and of cutting the shingles with the tips and the butts alternately at the top and bottom of the block. A further object of the invention is to provide a machine of this character, which, when there is a knot, or other imperfection in a shingle block, nearer to one end than the other of the same, will be capable of cutting the shingles so that the knot or other imperfection will continuously occur at the tip or thin end. |
