In Figure 63 will be seen a type of truck designed for the handling of stave bolts about a stave mill or through a steam box.
In Figure 64 will be seen another type of truck designed for the handling of stave bolts about a stave mill or through a steam box.
In Figure 65 will be seen another type of truck designed for the handling of stave bolts about a stave mill or through a steam box.
In Figure 66 will be seen another type of truck designed for the handling of stave bolts about a stave mill or through a steam box.
In Figure 67 will be seen another type of truck designed for the handling of stave bolts about a stave mill or through a steam box.
In Figure 68 will be seen another type of truck designed for the handling of stave bolts about a stave mill or through a steam box.
In Figure 69 will be seen the Regular 3-rail Transfer Car designed for the handling of 2-rail kiln cars which have been loaded "end-wise."
In Figure 70 will be seen another type of Regular 3-rail Transfer Car designed for the handling of 2-rail kiln cars which have been loaded "end-wise."
In Figure 71 will be seen a Specially-designed 4-rail Transfer Car for 2-rail kiln cars which have been built to accommodate extra long material to be dried.
In Figure 72 will be seen the Regular 2-rail Transfer Car designed for the handling of 3-rail kiln cars which have been loaded "cross-wise."
In Figure 73 will be seen another type of Regular 2-rail Transfer Car designed for the handling of 3-rail kiln cars which have been loaded "cross-wise."
In Figure 74 will be seen the Regular 2-rail Underslung type of Transfer Car designed for the handling of 3-rail kiln cars which have been loaded "cross-wise." Two important features in the construction of this transfer car make it extremely easy in its operation. It has extra large wheels, diameter 13-1/2 inches, and being underslung, the top of its rails are no higher than the other types of transfer cars.
Note the relative size of the wheels in the ill.u.s.tration, yet the car is only about 10 inches in height.

In Figure 75 will be seen the Regular 3-rail Underslung type of Transfer Car designed for the handling of 2-rail kiln cars which have been loaded "end-wise." This car also has the important features of large diameter wheels and low rail construction, which make it very easy in its operation.
[Ill.u.s.tration: Fig. 76. A Special 2-Rail Flexible Transfer Truck.]
In Figure 76 will be seen the Special 2-rail Flexible type of Transfer Car designed for the handling of 3-rail kiln cars which have been loaded "cross-wise." This car is equipped with double the usual number of wheels, and by making each set of trucks a separate unit (the front and rear trucks being bolted to a steel beam with malleable iron connection), a slight up-and-down movement is permitted, which enables this transfer car to adjust itself to any unevenness in the track, which is a very good feature.
In Figure 77 will be seen the Regular Transfer Car designed for the handling of stave bolt trucks.
In Figure 78 will be seen another type of Regular Transfer Car designed for the handling of stave bolt trucks.

In Figure 84 will be seen the Regular Small Dolly Kiln Truck designed for flat piling "end-wise" of the dry kiln.
Different Types of Kiln Doors
In Figure 85 will be seen the Asbestos-lined Door. The construction of this kiln door is such that it has no tendency to warp or twist. The framework is solid and the body is made of thin slats placed so that the slat on either side covers the open s.p.a.ce of the other with asbestos roofing fabric in between. This makes a comparatively light and inexpensive door, and one that absolutely holds the heat. These doors may be built either swinging, hoisting, or sliding.
