A short dictionary entry from Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary describing the pouncing machine used in hat-making to raise a nap on hat-bodies by abrasion. It explains how a sand-paper rubbing surface acts in a conical form, with an india-rubber cushion to prevent holes, and how the hat-body is held on hooks in a disk. Includes one line drawing (Fig. 3929) of the machine.
