Barrel-head Cut′ter.
(Coopering.) a. A tool for rounding and chamfering barrel-heads. The pivot c is stuck into the center of the head, and the tool rotated by the handle H. The angular cutter F is adjustable on the shank B of the tool, according to the radius of the barrel-head. b. A machine for effecting the same purpose. In the example the blank is placed between the clamping disks, and the frame turned so as to bring the blank in contact with the disked saw; this movement also brings the bevel-wheel upon the arbor of the clamping-disks in connection with its motivewheel upon the saw-shaft. The frame is duplicated, so that while one blank is being operated on, another may be clamped in position.
