        Description: |  
| This patent covers a planer where the head can be swiveled up to 45 degrees so as to take a shearing cut in boards prone to tear-out. W. R. Norris manufactured such planers in Fort Ann, NY, the home of the inventor on this patent; this patent was reissued, and Norris was assigned a share of that reissued patent. Therefore, it is safe to say that Norris manufactured this patent. |
