Nuova macchina levigatrice. Impariamo da Albany carte che il sig. Geo. W. Beardslee è ora uno dei suoi ultimi ly brevettato piallatrici finito ed in esercizio. La macchina è stata costruita a Townsend Fonderia di uno stabilimento che non sia un pezzo di cattivo lavoro passano al di fuori della porta e una prova della sua fondatezza è stata altamente spo ken. In questa prova si è scoperto quindici pollici plank al tasso di 120 piedi al minuto dando una uniformità e la regolarità della superficie la più perfetta e un polacco di gran lunga migliore rispetto a quella che potrebbe essere dato dal lato piano.

New Planing Machine. We learn by the Albany papers that Mr. Geo. W. Beardslee has now one of his recent ly patented planing machines finished and in operation. The machine was constructed at Townsend's Foundry an establishment that will not let a piece of bad work pass out the gate and a trial of its merits has been highly spo ken of. On this trial it turned out fifteen-inch plank at the rate of 120 feet a minute giving it a smoothness and evenness of surface the most perfect and a polish far better than could be given by the hand plane. The knives or cutters are stationary but elastic and the plank is carried through by a connected series of platforms which by an eccentric motion reversing the course of each performs all the functions of an endless chain. The plank is placed laterally (instead of hori zontally as in Woodworth's machine) and so is less liable to obstruction. The cutters are so combined as to throw off the shavings and keep the action of the machine free. We ex pect to be able to publish an illustrated de scription of this machine in a few weeks.
