Antique HB Smith Smithville NJ. Sticking Machine with Tooling Pat. July 6, 1858
Has a 5 Hp 3 phase Watson Induction Motor This machine was probably line shaft driven at one time and was later electrified the machine and cart are around 8 ft long a little under 3 ft wide and a little under 5 ft tall.
My understanding is that these machines were used to manufacture moldings.
This came from a wood shop that the owner retired, and he told me that it does work I have not powered it up.
