can be furnished with either a horizontal or a vertical stand.

When the straightener is used alone, the wire is pulled through by hand. It will straighten wire 14inch in diameter.

Wire Feed and Cutter. Fig. 98 represents a machine that can be used for various purposes. When fastened

to the bench it can be used for drawing wire from the coil and cutting it to any desired length.

It can be used as a wire cutter only. By using this feed and cutter, wire can be drawn to cut any desired length with double the rapidity with which it can be cut in any other way.

The size represented is for cutting wire 1/4-inch or less in diameter.

This machine can be used in connection with wire straighteners of any manufacture.

Slip Roll Forming Machine. In the machine shown

in Fig. 99, the roller around which the work is formed is easily and quickly released from its journal, so that the formed work can be taken from the end of the roller and not sprung over it. This arrangement enables

the operator to make the pipe more nearly perfect, and to form even conductor pipe on a stove pipe forming machine. The machine is complete in itself, being set on standards or legs.

Slip Roll Former, with Compensating Gear. The machine shown in Fig. 100 is much more easily adjusted, and can be set for forming any desired size of cylinder in much less time than is required to set others. They are made with slip rolls, so that small work can be readily taken from the end after it has

been formed. On the former, with 2-inch rolls, cylinders can be formed from D XXX tin, as small as 212 inches in diameter, and from X tin as small as 24 inches. On the former with 134-inch rolls, pipe can be formed from D XXX tin as small as 214 inches in diameter, and from X tin 2 inches.

Heavy Formers on Legs. Fig. 101 represents a former on legs, arranged with pulley for power. They are adapted for the same work and the same diameter of cylinders and same thickness of metal as those previously described.
