Lumber Sclvcrge Tool
A new tool, trade named Bord-Pri, has just made its appearance on the market to be used in the reclamation of old lumber in razing jobs. Lumber removed with this new type tool is said to remain usable for other installations. It lifts floor- ing, siding, roofing and other r'r'ood. Not only does it take off ordinary planking, but also lifts adjoining pieces of tongue-and-groove flooring and shiplapped siding' When butted against the boards to be removed, the tool hugs adjacent studding and the extended lips support it for positive leverage when pressure is applied to the handle. It has an easy-grip, well balanced handle, tough head casting, strong lockscrew and freely pivoting, flat-surfaced face plates.
It is manufactured by the Maco Corporation of Huntington, Indiana.
Portcrble Scw H<rs Rotcrting Tclble
The new NordbergBuday saw, built by the Nordberg Manufacturing Co., Milwaukee 7, Wis., was developed primarily to provide a simple fast cutting, time and money saving tool especially adapted to the needs of building contractors, carpenters, lumber yards, shipping and crating departments, industrial plants, in fact, wherever frequent changes in cutting angle is made.
The feature of this saw is the rotating table, the circular table top and saw mechanism rotating as a unit. With this design, various cuts are made by simply rotating the table. When changing the cutting angle from ripping to cross-cutting to mitering it is only necessary to rotate the table to the desired angle, drop the lock pin in place and make the cut. This can be done without shutting off the power. When making these various cuts, the lumber always remains lengthwise on the roller conveyor work tables, thus eliminating unnecessary handling of long lumber when making frequent changes in cuts. Two men can easily lift it off a truck or move it about the job as desired.
When equipped with a l2-inch blade the saw is said to cross-cut to a width of 16 inches or rip to a depth of 4 inches. The saw is supplied with two steel work tables 10 feet in length and fitted with ball bearing steel rollers.
