 CaOSS-CUT AND CIRCULAR SAW MILL. 



PATENT APPLIED FOR.

Fair at £lmira, lSo5, and again at the Sncicty's last 



Fair, held at fVatcrtoicn, Oct. 1S56. 



THE above cut reprei?ents a new and useful Maohice recently 

 perfected by the subscriber. It is made stronsj and durable, 

 and is very simply constructed, requiring little skll to operate it, 

 and is not liable to get out of order. It can be driven by any of the 

 ordinary Horse Powers used in threshing. The saws can be botli 

 used at one time, or separately, as may be desired. In sawin? wood 

 the limbs and small tree.? can be cut by the circular saw, while 1he 

 crosa-cut is .sawing the bodies of the larger trees : it is useful in 

 sawiQg barrel heading, stave and shjngle bolts, slitting fence stutT. 

 boring caps, and a variety of other purposes for which such saws 

 are employed. Within the last year some important improvements 

 have been made — such as strengthening the castings, attaching a 

 balance wheel to the circular saw, flitting the main shafts to receive 

 augers for boring cip^. He also furnishes a band with the combined 

 Mill, not included heretofore, and as now manufactured, can be fulh 

 recommended and jvarranted to he durable and substantial. It has 

 been tli^roughly tested — about fifty of them having been sol 1 with- 

 in the last year, which hive given entire satisfaction. With the 

 recent improvements, it will be found superior to any likeniac'iiine- 

 ry. TheCombined Machine ha.s one circular saw for cutting cord 

 wood, limbs, poles, &c ; and one cross-cut or drag-saw, for sawing 

 logs into stove-wood or other lengths ; the .single Machine has only 

 one cross-cut or drag saw; the double Machine has two drag saws, 

 whii'h are mide to order, to cut any desired length. The prices of 

 the Improved Machines are as follows : 

 Combined Machine, with cue circular and one drag saw, SSo 00 



Single Cross-Cut, with one drag saw, 40 00 



Double Cross-Cut, with two drag saws, 55 00 



Cap, Auger and Slitting arrangements, extra. 

 The Combined Saw Mill is capable of cutting from 30 to 40 cordi: 

 of stove wood per day, it properly driven. II: is warranted to be 

 well ma.de, of good m.aterials, and to work as represented. 



Wkbster, Jan. 4, 1856. 

 Mr. E. D. Hallock— near Sir :— The Cross-Cut and Circular Saw 

 Mill Combined, which I purchased from you, works to my entire 

 satistaction, and I can cheer.*'ully recommend it as a ve:'y useful and 

 labor-saving machine. It can beoper.ated with three or four horses 

 on the sweep power, in running either saw separately ; and five or 

 six horses will furnish sufQcient power to run both ,at the .same time, 

 sawing wood as fast as the same number of men can furnish it to 

 th.e machine. Very respectfully yours, &c.,

Pembroke, Sept. 12, 1856. 



Mr. Hali.ock :— The Combined Saw .Mill I bought of vou works 

 first rate. I attached it to Emery's tv/o horse power, which runs a 

 single saw as fast a-s two men can get the wood olf. I am satisfied 

 with sufiicient power the combined mill can cut all the wood in a 

 day that any man could desire. Yours, 



E. D. LON'G. 



We have been using during the summer one of Hallock's Sawino- 

 Machines', fir making railroad wood ; it is constructei] for twocros * 

 cut Saws. Our power is a portable engine of five horsp. With 

 this pcwer we have driven both Saws through three feet lojii with 

 the greatest ease, and have cut from 20 to 30 cordj of wood per 

 <iay. After Uiing the Machine steadily for several months we hare 

 no hegitation in saying that it is the oheapeet and best arrangem«at 



for sawing either long or short wood that we have ever yet seen. 

 In his Combined Circular and Cross- cut Saw Mill, by the addition 

 of a balance-wheel on his Circular Saw-arbor, the farmer has a 

 compact and very efficient and useful Machine for sawing wood, or 

 preparing and boring caps. It can be used either with Horse, Wind, 

 W'aler or Steam Power. By placing a slitting table upon the Circu- 

 lar Saw Table, bolts can easily be slit into cap stulf, and bored by an 

 auger attached to the ilacliine. Altogether, farmers will hnU it a 

 useful and reliable addition to the machinery ut the faim fur 8a\imj 

 labor. 



T. C. PETERS, Darien, N. Y. 



E. D. Hali.ock — Dear Sir : I consider the Combined Saw Mill I 

 purchased of you a very efficient Machine, and valuable fur saving 

 labor and timber. I am confident there is an actual saving of tim- 

 ber of at least ten per cent., and when sawed stove length, an in^ 

 crease of what woulil be rated as body wood, over the crdinary 

 chopped wood, of from 10 to 15 per cent. D. CLARK..

Mr. E. D. Hallock — Sir : In regard to the double Saw Mill that 

 I bought from you 1 ist July, I can say it is ahead of anything that 

 they can st.-irt up in Canada. I started the Circular first. I put on 

 two pair of horses, and run it one half day. AVe cut near 30 cords 

 of stove wood. It will cut as f.ist as any set of hands can put it on, 

 and as for the cross-cut I can cut off a log 16 to 20 inches hard 

 mnple in one minute. In fact, it will cut as much wood, big or lit- 

 tle, as any man could wish, and no mistake about it.
