Jeff Joslin Vintage Machinery entry for E. C. Atkins & Co.
|
Description: |
This invention was exhibited at the 1883 Indiana State Fair where it received positive reviews. It was manufactured by E. C. Atkins & Co., appearing in their 1894 catalog as the "Hamlet Dimension Gage". An example has surfaced that closely matches this patent. Strangely, though, the example bears a "FEB. 20 1883" patent date, which may correspond to a vaguely similar tablesaw gauge from another Indiana inventor: see patent 272,734. |
