| Description: |  | From "Scientific American"'s summary of this patent: "This invention consists in the employment of two circular saws placed on one mandrel, in connection with feed rollers, a pressure and a curved plate, all arranged in such a manner that the timber from which the hoops are formed may be sawed of a uniform width throughout its entire length, and the timber then divided into hoops, the whole work being done simultaneously at one operation." |  |
