De Land pool. Carr's Machine Shop. C.L. Purcell and his wife had a pretty hard struggle making ends meet these past few years until he went through the defense trade school at Ocala, Florida. Now he is a qualified machinist and welder and can handle most any job in the Carr plant, a key-subcontractor in the DeLand, Florida pool

DeLand pool. Improvised foundry, Daytona Beach. Experts said they couldn't make precision aluminum and brass castings in this improvised Florida foundry, but it's being done to the exact specifications of a war contract. In Daytona Beach's three-man foundry. A city fireman, a young electrician, and a foundryman are casting important aircraft equipment for the DeLand industrial pool. City fireman J.L. Clayton became curious about the melting of aluminum and brass, and built himself a hobby workshop in the back of the Daytona fire station. It grew into this foundry on the edge of town where, in addition to pool castings, they are turning out a new type of air raid siren

DeLand pool. Improvised foundry, Daytona Beach. This is the blast division of city fireman J.L. Clayton's three-man foundry at Daytona Beach, Florida. It is turning out precision parts for experimental bombers. In the foreground is the blast furnace, in the background the junk heap of brass and aluminum scrap from which come the metals to charge the crucible. Arthur Brown, Negro helper, used to work in an orange grove until Clayton taught him how to handle molten metals

DeLand pool. Improvised foundry, Daytona Beach. City fireman J.L. Clayton of Daytona Beach, Florida, turned curiosity into war production. Several years ago he became interested in molding metals, particularly brass and aluminum in his spare time and put up a one-man foundry in back of the fire station as a hobby. Now he's making cast parts for the DeLand industrial pool and turning out aluminum air raid sirens of his own invention. Clayton is pulling a newly-cast siren section out of the mold. With him is R.G. Campbell, Jr., foreman of his expanded hobby shop

DeLand pool. Improvised foundry, Daytona Beach. American ingenuity is the keenest tool in the kit of the machinists turning out war weapons in Florida's pools. This is the way J.L. Clayton, Daytona Beach fireman, figured out and built a blast furnace hot enough to melt brass and aluminum. He hooked up a fuel oil barrel to the old foundry pump shown at right. The pump blasts the oil and compressed air down the pipeline into the crucible. Arthur Brown, Negro helper, has his hand on a valve that controls the air and fuel which heat the furnace

DeLand pool. Improvised foundry, Daytona Beach. A new kind of air raid siren is resulting from a fireman's curiosity about aluminum. City fireman J.L.

Today he is molding aluminum air raid sirens in a rapidly expanding foundry and is handling molded aircraft parts for the DeLand, Florida, industrial pool. R.G. Campbell, Jr., foreman of the shop; Lewis Pollity, formerly an electrician, and Clayton examine a newly-cast siren "blade"

DeLand pool. Improvised foundry, Daytona Beach. Making a part for the new type of air raid siren he invented. Several years ago, city fireman J.L. Clayton of Daytona Beach, Florida, became interested in melting alloys and built a hobby foundry in back of the fire station where he spent his spare time. Now it has grown into a three-man foundry at the edge of town, and he is turning out experimental parts for bombers, vital pieces for the DeLand industrial pool, and air raid sirens of aluminum and brass

DeLand pool. Bits and parts. Casey's machine shop, down by the railroad tracks in De Land, Florida, is one of the strongest members of the Volusia County pool, now starting on its third million-dollars worth of war production without a single rejection. F.W. Casey, owner of the shop, looks over some of the miscellaneous items in his yard from which he makes many of the machines he uses. He's inspecting a woodworking machine with an eye to the pool's next contract. An old dough mixer at the right of the window will supply some parts for the next job
