Leath′er-scal′lop-ing ma-chine′.

A machine for giving a wavy outline to the edges of leather straps to be used in making ornamental harness, and for other purposes. The example has a pair of wavy-edged disks set at any required distance apart, according to the width of strap operated upon. In the drawing, the scalloped shape of the disk A is not apparent, and the farther disk is hidden by the near one. The pressure of the bed-roller against the scalloped disks is increased by a cam-lever at one end of the supporting lever of the bed-roller. Motion is given to the scalloped disks by a winch.
