Description: |
| "My invention relates to improvements in machines for cutting mortises, moldings, and rosettes in articles of wood. The invention consists in the employment of a rotary cutter the spindle of which is supported in bearings on a frame which slides in grooves on the main frame, the rotary cutter being driven by a belt from an adjustable counter-shaft, the belt passing over adjustable tightening-pulleys. The article to be operated upon is placed on a table or support, which is moved backward and forward by means of a cog-wheel gearing into a rack on the under side of the table, so that when the cutter has bored the requisite depth the table can be moved along and a groove the required length is cut without raising or removing the cutter from the same. The sliding table is carried by a sliding frame, which is adjustable on the main frame by means of a screw." |
