Description:
From the 1855-06-23 Scientific American: "This improvement in jointing staves embraces reciprocating planes placed upon a rod, connected with a fly wheel; the planes work in guides. The clamp for holding the staves to the jointing planer, is attached to a rod; each stave being held firmly in the clamp by a cam, and is set so as to cut the proper bevel. The stave descends and is presented to the jointing planes by the gravity of itself and the clamp, and then the clamp is elevated by pressing upon a treddle, either to turn the edge of the stave, or to place a new one in the clamp. The jointing is a planing operation; very correct and easily managed."
