PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Cutters for Square Moulding and similar Wood
Working Machines.
We, JOSEPH HENRY OLLIER, of 66, Clifford Street, Chorlton Road, Manchester,
in the County of Lancaster, Wood Cutting Machinist, and WILLIAM BROWN, of
Mount Vernon, Eccles New Road, Pendleton, in the said County, Builder, do
hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
-
Our invention relates to improvements in cutters for square moulding and similar
wood working machines in which the cutters are bolted on a rotating cutter block
usually a squared block.
In carrying our improvements into effect we form the blades or edges of the
cutters V shaped in cross section or variations of the V shape formed say by
omitting one side or lade or removing a part or parts of the metal at the point of
the Vor elsewhere according to the form required. These improved cutters are
formed with or secured on stems or shanks which when in use are bolted to the
rotating cutter block and the form and set of their cutting edges insures a lead,
that is to say, the blade meets the wood diagonally and so comes gradually into
action thereby cutting the wood without tearing it.

Improvements in Cutters for Square Moulding and similar Wood
Working Machines.
We, JOSEPH HENRY ÜLLIER, of 66, Clifford Street, Chorlton Road, Manchester,
in the County of Lancaster, Wood Cutting Machinist, and WILLIAM BROWN, of
Mount Vernon, Eccles New Road, Pendleton, in the said County, Builder, do
hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be
performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:-
:-
Our invention relates to improvements in cutters for square moulding and similar
wood working machines in which the cutters are bolted on a rotating cutter block
usually a squared block.
In carrying our improvements into effect we form the blades or edges of the
cutters shaped in cross section or variations of the V shape formed say by

page_text: omitting one side or blade or removing a part or parts of the metal at the point of
the Vor elsewhere according to the form required. These improved cutters are
formed with or secured on stems or shanks which when in use are bolted to the
rotating cutter block and the form and set of their cutting edges insures a lead,
that is to say, the blade meets the wood diagonally and so comes gradually into
action thereby cutting the wood without tearing it.
In the accompanying sheet of drawings-
Fig. 1 is an elevation of a square cutter block with the corners removed upon
which are secured moulding cutters made according to our invention and a finished
baluster in position above the cutters, Fig. 2 is a sectional end view of Fig. 1,
Figs. 3 and 4 are two views of one form of cutter and Figs. 5, 6 and 7 are three
views of another form of cutter made according to our invention.
Figs. 1 to 7 represent different forms of the improved cutters, made according to
our invention and arranged to be bolted to an ordinary square cutter block such as
used upon a wood moulding machine and in order that the cutting portion may
meet the timber diagonally that is with one edge of the cutter leading we form
each cutter with its blade (or blades) or cutting portion 13 set at an angle to its
shank 14 which is bolted to the cutter block.
The blades or cutting edges of the cutters are all either V shaped in cross section
or variations of the V shape formed say by omitting a part or parts of the metal
at the front of the V or elsewhere according to the form required.
The cutters meet the wood diagonally and so come gradually into action thereby
cutting the timber without tearing it.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is;-
The improved wood moulding machine cutters having their blades or edges
V shaped in cross section, or variations of the V shape, formed say, by omitting
one side of the V, or by removing a part or parts of the metal at the point of the V
according to the form required, the blade portion of the cutter being set at an
angle to its shank in order to give a lead to the point of the cutting edge, sub-
stantially as described and as illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
