Description: |
Device allows lateral movement of sawblade to accommodate springing of the log. "For this purpose as in Orlando Child's patent of December 17th 1850, of which I am the proprietor, springs have been used and applied to journal boxes. With my improvement no such application of springs becomes necessary; nor do I use any collars on the saw spindle; nor friction rollers to embrace the saw near its periphery as is described in the patent of George Page—dated July 16th, 1841, the device I use being applied to the shaft or spindle and within one of the boxes thereof." The referenced patents are 7,832 and 2,174. |
