Description: |
| "My invention relates to gages for the knives or cutters of the rotary cutter-heads of woodworking machines and may be employed in connection with square, trapezoidal or other shaped cutter-heads having seats or faces to receive the knives or cutters, with chip-breaks at the front ends and parallel longitudinal shoulders near the rear or inner ends." These gages were a significant improvement over trial-and-error setting of moulder knives. Unfortunately, the gages are often lost when cutterheads change hands. |
