Description: |
Most of the patents prior to 1836 were lost in the Dec. 1836 fire. Only about 2,000 of the almost 10,000 documents were recovered. Little is known about this patent. Only the patent drawing is available. This patent is in the database for reference only.
"This improvement consists in using turned wooden knobs, around which ferrules of brass are to be put, and circular plates of brass let into their faces, and polished. Economy is the object in view in this invention."
