Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrated Catalogue and General Description of Improved Machine Tools for Working Metal In presenting a new edition of our Catalogue we have endeavored to illustrate as many as possible of the machines which we have added to our list since our last edition was published; but the progress of machine construction is so rapid that it is impossible to keep a work of this kind thoroughly up to date. We have in progress at the present time a number of new machines which we would greatly like to illustrate, but which will not be completed in time for the present issue. Besides adding many new and improved tools to our list of manufactures we have thoroughly revised many of our standard products, making those changes in detail which experience has demonstrated would increase their efficiency or durability and substituting new designs where it was found advantageous to do so. At best this publication is necessarily incomplete; it is intended more as an indication of our general line of work, than an exact catalogue of our productions. If, therefore, intending purchasers should not find herein machines which meet their requirements in capacity or kind, we may nevertheless be prepared to furnish what they want, and we solicit their inquiries and specifications.
