“The self-acting slide-rest carries reduction by driving the lathe itself the small “feed” movement necessary for bringing the tool to bear on successive portions of the work, it dispenses wholly with the need for physical exertion on the part of the workman, and does not even demand his continuous supervision.” —The Encyclopedia Britannica, 1903
