Part 2 of a serial article from Posselt's Textile Journal (November 1907) on the shearing machine used to finish woolen and worsted cloth. It covers operating the shear, including lifting the revolver at seams, cloth tension and friction plate care, and cutting the nap. It then describes the plain and list-saving steel cloth rests with sectional figures, and gives the builders' instructions for setting the rest and ledger blade.
