Description: |
| This machine was manufactured as the "Thurston & Schott inverted milling machine", and is "for cutting the dies used by jewelers for cutting ornamental forms out of sheet-metal stock." It was popular with jewelers and firearms manufacturers. It is uncertain what Schott's role was in developing this vertical milling machine, but most likely he helped pay for its development. |
