Columbia, Ill., March 24, 1915. Gentlemen: I received the Boring Machine some time ago and it is O. K. I have tested it and found it the best machine I ever used. I am employed at Dupo by the Missouri Pacific on their repair track. There are about fifty carpenters employed there, some of whom I think will order boring machines from you, as I have given it a good recommendation. Do you supply a 1-inch bit for your machine, as I Please let me know. Yours very truly, HY. MCCONKEY. Columbia, Monroe County, Illinois. Please note hook on lower right hand side of cut curves upwardly, so that it may be applied to right or left knee of operator, whereas the hook on opposite side curves downwardly, which forms a support for the other leg. By means of these hooks or pressure sustaining members enables operator to exert pressure to drive the bit laterally and hold the machine rigid with his legs to rotate the auger with both hands easily and rapidly in a sitting or standing position. Can also be used in a stooping or overhead position by letting the hook that curves upwardly rest against operator's shoulder. For boring laterally up in between car sills for splice boards and other locations where space is limited, we guarantee the Winkler Boring Machine to EXCEL ANY DEVICE ON THE MARKET. If you do not find it so, return the machine to us at our expense and we will refund your money. When remittance does not accompany the order $8.00 is the price of a Winkler Boring Machine.
