SPARKE AND CO., ENGINEERS,
THORN LANE FOUNDRY, NORWICH,
Invite the attention of Agriculturists, Shippers, Contractors, and
others, to their
PATENT SELF-ACTING CIRCULAR SAW BENCHES.
These Benches are fitted with a New Apparatus for drawing timber to and
from the Saw, so simple that it can be managed and the speed instantly
regulated. They are also fitted with a draft chain, perfectly free in
the delivery, which can only draw parallel to the saw. They are adapted
to cut any description of wood; rough timber merely requiring to have
each end chipped with an axe, to give it a steady bearing on the table
and carriage. The carriages are fitted with a lever roll, to enable the
man who works the bench to raise the timber on the carriages to carry it
beyond the saw; they are also fitted with an improved gauge, to cut
either parallel or feather edge boards; for deal cutting a spring roll is
sent to press the deals against the gauge, so that a true cut is
obtained, however uneven the surface and with as little waste as the
common pit saw.
Any of these benches may be worked by power from 4-horse upwards, as the
speed for bringing the timber to and from the saw is regulated according
to the power used, they are also fitted with a lever so as to stop or
reverse the motion of the timber instantaneously (a necessary precaution
in case of accident); they are suitable for cutting timber on estates,
for timber merchants, contractors, or builders’ purposes, as timber of
any length and depth, according to the diameter of the saw, may be cut
perfectly true. (_See next Page_.)

SPARKE & CO.’S VERTICAL SAW MILL.
These Mills are very strong, fitted with 6 saws, and are made to cut two
deals at one time; the Saws are worked by a simple motion which
considerably lessens the working parts of the mill, and adds to its
compactness; it can be readily fixed, as the mill is firmly bolted to a
metal base plate. They are made in two sizes, for cutting 18 inches and
12 inches deep. A smaller mill on the above principle, for cutting
felloes and curves.
