SPUR GEARED MILLS
Reading edition
Are furnished to order to be driven by spur or crown wheel gear, direct from upright shaft, in iron or wood husks, or without husks as preferred. Such a mill is constructed to drive one or half a dozen run of stones from one crown wheel. The iron pinions are made to lift from suitable iron sleeves when necessary to stop one or more of the stones. This device is simple and not objectionable. To those who prefer to make the husks at the mill house we will send drafts and description showing how every part, iron and piece is located, as well as the entire structure on the most approved plan.
