Description: |
"My invention relates to certain improvements in pipe-cutters for cutting metallic pipes, and the purpose thereof is to provide novel means by which a pipe is channeled to guide the cutters and the burr raised by the cutters is wholly removed, leaving the end of the pipe perfectly smooth, with a uniform surface and diameter and a beveled edge." The rocking frame for the paired cutters compensates for "out-of-round" pipe. The "burnishing block" removes the external burr formed by the cutters. The printed patent has an erroneous application date.
An 1893 write-up for the Comstock pipe cutter shows a "single wheel" cutter. |
