The NS-18 is a "prize winning" band saw, the easiest handling, most popular machine on the market. Compact, rugged construction easy operation . . . precision cutting and mechanical perlection combine to make this speed low cost band saw a marvel in its iield. Its low cost is made possible by modern line production methods in our new, recently constructed plants, tooled for rnass production. The NS-18 is acclaimed by users as the finest metal cutting band saw on the market, because the most diflicult or intricate iob, Iarge or small, is accurately cut with rare ease and precision. Many o{ America's largest plants have battedes of NS-18 band saws in continuous operation. They report tremendous savings in die costs, and hours cut lrom tormer die-cutting methods.

Under work pressure the saw blade deflects so that it is supported on points only. A hardened steel guide such as a ball bearing guide cannot adjust itself and will tear and chew the saw blade from the rear which will greatly shorten the life ol the blade. The microscopic view shows what happens to a saw blade when used with
non-self-seating guides

Iace under varying working pressure has been solved with the Grob guides. After "seating" itself in the guide the back of the bale wears smooth as shown by microscopic view. Note how the surlace is actually improved over new unused saw blade. Long life o{ the guides is assured by a felt oiler mounted directly above the upper guide.
