Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A short Scientific American article describing C. B. Morse's patented method for centering wooden spinning bobbins on the spindle. A small bench drilling machine bores intersecting diagonal holes near the base of the bobbin, and twine or rubber packing is threaded through them so it projects evenly into the bore and survives steaming. Two figures show the drilling machine and a cross-section of the packed bobbin.
