, ing, and trimming the edges of the vulcanized coating of harness-trimmings, such as rings, buckles, terrets, hooks, and like articles.

In the drawing, Figure 2 is a plan of one of Fig. 1 is a crosssection of-a much-enlarged die.

These'dies ere'to be used after the rubbercoated ring, buckle, or terret, &c., have been vulcanized and removed from the vulcaniz er.

The dies should be provided with cuttingedges for trimming oif the superfluous coating. The dies shown in drawing are adapted. to the manufacture of rings, buckles, and the like.

In Fig. lit will be seen that the dies are beveled oil at a and 0, so as to form sharp cutting-edges. These edges a cut off the waste of the covering at the inner side, while the edges 0 cut oil the waste at the outer side of the ring or buckle. At 6 are shown indentations to imitate stitching or other ornamentei tion. At x, y, and z the dies touch each other,

so that they cannot crush the article placed in them. v

The form of the dies will vary with the form of the article to be pressed in them.

In the useof these dies they should be heated, or the vulcanized article should be hot, so

that they may \be hot pressed.
