Mason, Fenwick & Lawrence, patent attorneys
My invention relates to a machine for shaping and finishing marble, slate, or other stone like substances with either straight or serpentine outlines or surfaces; also for mortising, drilling, and countersinking such, stone; also for ornamenting and finishing round, oval, or other irregular-curved shapes in stone. The machine may be made single or double, the one represented and described herein being double, that is, having shaping-cutters and operating and clamping mechanisms on either side of the center of the frame. The machine, when used for other than round, oval, or like irregular-curved ornamentations and finishing, employs a reciprocating stone-supporting bed; and when used for round, oval, or other like irregular-curved work employs a revolving stone-supporting bed. |
