Designed for small shops, where ruling is not done very rapidly, andwhere, therefore, the ink has time to dry (though the carrier is short)after the paper has passed under the pens and before it drops into thereceiving box at feeders feet. So far as material and workmanshipare concerned, there is nothing better made than Stjde 2-B. The differ-ence between it and the higher-priced rulers is simply in the numberof parts used. Striking is accomplished on this machine exactly as it ison the Style i-A ruling machine. Paper drops into receiving box. STYLE 1=A HICKOK HAND STRIKER RULING MACHINE. Described on opposite pag-e.

924 EVERYTHING FOR THE PRINTER Style 1=A Ruling Machine is for use in shops where there is consider-able faint or cross ruling, thus economizing the time of automatic strik-ers used in the same shop. It may also be used in small-sized binderies,where there is not sufficient work for an automatic striker machine.The operator turns the hand crank with the left hand, thus operatingthe machine by hand, while with the right hand the pen-beam is tiltedup and down, doing hand striking. Power may be applied, and steamattachments are furnished to order at an extra charge. vStyle i-A is asperfectly built in everj^ part as the mOvSt expensive automatic strikerruling machine. The difference in construction is simply leaving off thestriker parts and some other necessary pieces required on an automaticstriker machine. STYLE 1 SINGLE BEAM AUTOMATIC STRIKER RULING MACHINE.
