The slat stacker,
designed to cut thin boards into slats used in
the manufacture of wirebound boxes was the first
or second machine he designed and built. Most or
all of the parts were made by his employer's
excellent shop. It worked properly the first time
tried...a surprise to some. The boards were
coated on both sides with plastic by the
laminating machine shown below and cut by the
slitter shown at the right prior to being fed to
the stacker.

The slat slitter
was the second or first machine he designed and
built. It used quite a few commercial parts and
the balance of parts was made by the excellent
shop referred to at the left.
