is the principal machine on the Pacific coast. 1849. Purviance made the platform removable, to convert the reaper into a mower. 1849. Platt's self-acting rake sweeping over quadrantal platform. Same feature in Palmer and Williams's and in Seymour's, 1851. 1850. Adkins's cutter-bar on hinged frame. 1850. Knowles and Bevington's side dropper. 1850. Heath's binder, with a reciprocating rake beneath the platform. 1851. Watson's automatic binder. 1851. Miller's backwardly recip, tarred, twisted into strands, and finally laid up into rope. These were introduced into the dockyard at Chatham, England, and effected a great improvement in the manufacture of cables and cordage. See also English patents, — Sylvester, 1783; Seymour, 1784; Fothergill, 1793; Balfour, 1793, 1798; Chapman, 1797, 1799, 1807.

and chamfering. Stave-jointer. Stave-joint′er. A machine for truing the edges of staves. Fig. 5583 is a machine for trimming the edges of staves by a descending cut, the stave lying upon a bed and exposing the part to be cut off over the edge, against which the cutter works shearwise. The cutter is depressed by a treadle and raised by a spring when the foot is withdrawn. In Crozier's stave-jointer the stave is held in a frame and dressed by knives on a revolving head. In Seymour's machine the stave lies upon a bed and is jointed by a guillotine knife. In Doane's machine it passes between a pair of saws set at an angle with each other. Stave-jointer. Fig. 5584 is a bench attachment. The staves are clamped in their bent position on a frame, to which are pivoted a double-acting knife and a swing plane. Jointing-saw. In Fig. 5585, the stave is clamped upon the curve-topped carriage, and is passed between the saws, which are carried upon inclined adjus
ssing through the ascending and descending pipes e, and forced into a second chamber, where it is cooled and farther purified. It is thence distributed by downcast pipes h among a series of horizontal and vertical flannel bags j k l, in which it is condensed as a fine white powder; the lower bags receive that which is shaken into them from those above.
