Description
UNITED STATES SAMUEL RINGGOLD, OF FLORIDA, AND EDWARD EARLE, OF SAVANNAH,
PATENT UFFICE.
GEORGIA.
IMPROVED'MQDE or PRESEBVING TlMBER BY some THE SAME m LlME-WATE'R Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 877, dated August 6, 1838.
is a' full and exact description.
The nature of our invention consists inapplying heat by boiling in strong limerwater to the interior as well as the exterior of timber, according as the size and kind of timber and the use in which it is to be employed may ad- 3 mit or require, for the destruction and prevention of worm in it, and for the correction or removal of v the corruptible sap and the occupation of its place by a preservative substance.
To enable others skilled iuthe art to make use-of our invention, we will proceed to describe it and its application. 1
We first bore the timber, if it be of a size to adlnitof it, through the center, making the perforation of acaliber proportioned to the size of the piece-say from half an inch to one and a half or two inches. Then we boil it-iu strong lime-water for a length of time proportioned .to itssize, as-four to six hours it it be twelve. inches square, and so in proportion to its substance- When the timber has thus had the heat and fluidronveyed through its whole sub-- stance it is to be removed .to a shed, where,
protected from the sun and wind, itmay gradually dry. Finally,'before. it is used the perforation through the center is to be completely filled with mild dry lime or with petroleum or coal-tar, as the purpose for which it is intended may make preferable, and plugged by wood of the same kind and prepared in the same manner also, if the use to which the timber is destined be such as to admit of it, the exterior may 'be payed or coated with hot petroleum or coaltar.
What we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The boiling of timber in limewater, as above set forth. We apply thisfluid to the interior as well as the exterior of timber by means of the central perforation, when the size of the timber requires it, as the most efl'ectual mode of preserving it from the ravages of insects and from rot.
We do notclaim rue saturating of timber by 1 a. solution of lime in water when applied cold,
or when heated by that heat whichis generated' by the slakingof the lime, but confine our claim to the boiling it in lime-water during one, two, three, or more hours.
