Automatic saw sharponor.

One Of the most ingenious pieces OF
machinery Of modern invention is the
saw shaFponer. which not only rapidly
and accurately sharpens circular saws
Of varying diameters and pitch, but
does II automatically. The saw to be
ground Is keyed TO horizontal shaft,
which IL slowly revolved, bringing
each tooth in turn under the emery
wheel This emery wheel has two mo-
lions, one circular melton and the
other oacillating motion. which enable
the grinder 20 cut one edge Of the
tooth and then the other. This IL ac-
complishod by most ingenious sys-
tenn Of levers and cams. One OF these
levers has turn buckle by means OF
which any desired pitch can be given
the teeth. Tho emery wheel can be-
raised or lowered 10 suit the diameter
Of the saw. The operation Of this de.
vice IL 50 simple that saw can be
keyed 20 the shaft, adjusted and the
machine started In a remarkably short
time. and when onca In operation no
attention whatever IL necessary.
