Jeff Joslin Vintage Machinery entry for Moak Machine & Foundry Co.
|
Description: |
This patent provides a single control for adjusting both the tilt and elevation of the blade. Boice-Crane Co. marketed this design as their "Monotrol" tablesaw. Moak Machine & Foundry Co. sold a Monotrol tablesaw from the mid-1960s until their demise in the 1980s; we have not been able to confirm that they used this patent, but the co-incidence of names and the similarities in external design imply that Moak did, in fact, license this patent. Moak's saw takes a 16-inch blade where the Boice-Crane saw takes a 10-inch blade. |
