ABSTRACT:
A single operator shake mill having a frame adjoining a workman operating station is provided with a surface for supporting a pre-kerfed shake block. A stop member is inclined upwardly and rearwardly toward the operator station to apply a downward and rearward force on the block whereas a splitting bar at the operator station is pulled through a kerf in the block to split an uppermost shake from the block by the application of a downward and forward pulling force which holds the block tight against the stop member and supporting surface while splitting. A reversible motor rotates sprockets which pull chains connected to the forward end of the splitting bar for providing the pulling force on the splitting bar. The control for this motor is at the operator's station so that the operator is free to set the block in place, split the shakes, and trim and stack the shakes without leaving the operator station. A shake trimming apparatus is also shown.
