1. Palmer, Alfred T. Tank manufacture (Chrysler). Traveling overhead hoists are used throughout the huge Chrysler tank arsenal in Detroit, for moving heavy castings from one production operation to another. These workers are removing the rotor casing for a 75 mm gun turret from a machine which grinds the outside rim. The twenty-eight ton "medium" tanks M-3s produced here carry 75 mm field guns and 37 mm anti-aircraft guns as well as several machine guns and other small arms [between 1940 and 1946]

2. Hollem, Howard R. Conversion. Electric shaver plant. This worker in a New England plant that normally produces electric dry shavers is now busy turning out spring collets for machine tools to be used in war production. On this Norton type C six-inch semi-automatic cylindrical grinder, he used to turn out rotor shafts for the motor of the shaver. To convert his machine to the larger grinding job, it was necessary only to exchange the normal one-inch vitrified aluminum oxide wheel for a three-inch wheel and to increase the feed of the cooling solution. This worker was used to working to a tolerance of .0002 inches on the motor shafts so he finds it simple to attain the comparatively rough tolerance of .002 inches required on this war work. Schick Inc., Stamford, Connecticut 1942 Feb

3. Hollem, Howard R. Conversion. Electric shaver plant. Normal peacetime work of this New England plant is the production of electric dry shavers. The worker on this Norton type C six-inch semi-automatic cylindrical grinder normally grinds the rotor shaft for the motor of the shaver using this set-up. He has since been shifted to the making of spring collets to be used in machine tools being made to further the war production effort (see pix #D-2973). Schick Inc., Stamford, Connecticut 1942 Feb

5. Hollem, Howard R. This Norton cutter-grinder which had been specially adapted to grind cams on the motor shaft for the electric dry shaver which this New England plant normally produces, has now been converted to grind permanent magnet rotors for machine tool motors. The conversion was accomplished with new jigs and fixtures and slight changes in the head. This is a tricky job well suited to the skill of this plant's workers. The metal is alnico and the octagonal shape consists of surfaces which are arcs drawn from the center of the piece. Schick Inc., Stamford, Connecticut
