Improvements in Whitewash Brushes.

I JOHN ASPINALL Brush Manufacturer Windmill Yard Shamble Street
Barnsley Yorks do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows :-
I nail one row of nails close to the edge of strip of leather or other material
round the brush stock. By so doing I leave more space for cement to be got in
amongst the bristles or other material. After cementing I then nail in strip
another row or more rows of nails which secures inore firmly the bristles or other
material to the brush stock than the ordinary make of whitewash brushes which
has only one row of nails in strip.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Whitewash Brushes.
I JOHN ASPINALL of Windmill Yard, Shambles Street Barnsley in the County
of York Brush Manufacturer, 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 :-
My invention relates to the construction of whitewash brushes the object thereof
being to more firmly secure the bristles or other brush material to the brush stock
than is possible with whitewash brushes constructed in the ordinary way to attain
which I construct my improved whitewash brush substantially in the manner set
forth in the accompanying sheet of drawings in which,
Fig. 1 is an elevation and Fig. 2 a cross sectional elevation of my improved
whitewash brush.
Similar letters of reference denote corresponding parts in each figure.
After the bristles or other brush material A has been placed in position in the
ordinary manner and the strip of leather B placed around the upper part of stock C
I secure the leather strip B and bristles A to said stock C by a row of nails d which
are driven through the leather B near its upper edge and by this means it will be
seen that more space is secured for the cement e which is then placed between the
leather strip B and stock C and so gets in well amongst the lower ends of the
bristles A.
Subsequent to the cementing as aforesaid I further secure the leather strip B to
the stock C by one or more rows of nails d' by which means the bristles become
more firmly and securely fixed or attached to the stock C than is the case with
whitewash brushes of ordinary construction.
Where preferred two or more rows of nails may be used for the purpose stated
without using cement as will be well understood.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is
1. In whitewash brushes the use of two or more rows of nails for securing the
leather strip B together with the bristles A to the stock C substantially as
described.

page_text: 2. In the construction of whitewash brushes the securing of the leather strip B
- first by a single row of nails d near its upper edge to the stock C and subsequent
to applying the cement the use of one or more rows of nails d' for further securing
the bristles A to the stock C substantially as described.
Dated this 2nd day of November 1891.
