A new LATH MACHINE
Ell. r. Karstens Invents One to Man
ufacture Patent

VI. r. Karstens of Ladysmith, has
recently patented a machine for the
manufacture of a plaster board or
sheathing to take the place of lath.
The sheathing, or what is styled pat
ent lath, is simply thin lumber through
which cuts are made at intervals. with
saws. The frequency of the slots may
be varied as may also the distance apart.
The number of slots will be determined
by the amount necessary to give the
plaster ample odherence.
The machine consists of several saws
so arranged as to dip into the stock from
from which the lath is made and after
cutting the proper or desired distance,
rise again. AS some of the saws are
cutting, others are in the upward pos
ition, running idly. The machine will
cut away whatever amount that may
be desired both in frequency and width
of slot.
The advantage is claimed for this kind
of lath are said to be in the solidity of
the wall, the permanency of the plaster
ed surface and that anyone can nail it
on and the speed with which it can be
done.
