A short dictionary entry from Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary describing the thread-waxer, a heated bowl of shoemaker's wax through which thread passes in sewing machines for boots, shoes, and leather. It explains the path of the thread through the tension aperture, over the shaft, and between elastic expressor-disks, with a cross-sectional figure (Fig. 6406). It cross-references the sewing-machine listing.
