THE LARGEST SAWS IN THE WORLD 



This is one of the two Disston cut-off saws 

 in use at the Coats Shingle Company's Mill, 

 These saws arc 108 inches in diameter and 

 each one weighs, ready to run, 795 pounds. 

 One hundred and ninety spiral teeth are 

 inserted in each saw. The successful build- 

 ing of these saws affords a striking example 

 of the advantages of Disston experience and 

 facilities. 



You may never need saws as large as 

 this. You will be interested to know, how- 

 ever, that Disston workmen and Disston 

 equipment are of the kind that makes the 

 building of the largest possible saws in the 

 world and the best saws of all kinds- 

 possible.
