A NEW Brr.-We were shown at the furniture shop
of c. W. schwamb, the other day, new invention in
the way of bit or auger which is one of the most
complete things we ever looked at It is called the
Expansion BIZ" and win bore smooth cut Lole
any size from seven-eighths of inch to three inch
es. Similar bits are made which bore any size, from
quarter inch to six inches. The .stock is of good
STEEL and at the point it has finely cut thread and
cutter Just above TIE cutter is hole in the stock
in which is inserted and made Arm by small screw
sharp steel additional cutter with highly finished
lip, and this can DE graduated to any size by scale
slide. The bit is the invention of man named
Clark. of Connecticut. and are Informed it does
better work than any anger SO far used chief ad.
vantage it possesses is that hole of any size within
the gauge of the movable cutter can be bored with
the same stock and no special size bits are REQUIRED
for each particular gauge. The bit is worth the at.
tention of every mechanic who has use for such
tool
