Kerf′ing-ma-chine′.

A machine for sawing a series of parallel kerfs on one surface of a board, in order to enable it to be bent.

It consists of a table and a series of circular saws upon a horizontal mandrel, the latter being vertically adjustable, so as to allow the saws to project above the surface of the table to an extent equal to the desired depth of kerf.
