Wheel cutting engine on a table stand with a drawer and a box (not original, post 1875) of brass fittings and a brass extension arm
Wheel cutting engine on table with drawer, 1770-1785. This wheel cutting engine is thought to have been made by John Smith in the 1770s while he worked at King George III's Observatory at Richmond upon Thames. The engine was used to cut the teeth of wheels or pinions, and could have been used to divide the scales of instruments.
