Conversion. Floor waxer plant. Now making machine gun cover plates, this machine was converted from a line shaft drive to motor drive when a small Eastern manufacturing company converted its product from floor waxers to small parts for war equipment. Unable to purchase new equipment for his defense work, the owner bought second-hand equipment and remodelled it. Delivery of first orders was made thirty days after contract, an amazingly short time considering that conversion of the machinery took two weeks of it. Floorola Products Inc., York, Pennsylvania
