Title: B.S.V.Dowel Cutter
Post by: Northwoods on September 24, 2020, 01:20:18 PM
Got a dowel cutter of the type shown below this AM.  Other folks have identified it as Model 4R.
Still another source has the owner as John W. Geade who held a few woodworking patents in the 30's, and earlier.
A B.S.V. brace on the bay identified the city as Cleveland.

My question: What does . stand for and do any of you have further info on the company, etd?
