![THE STAR REVERSIBLE FLASK The Star Flask has long been popular—the greatest seller of all—because of its convenience, and because it practically gives two flasks for the price of one. The detail illustration shows the top and bottom plates and the two rings, all separated, and the form of the bolt. The wide ring has a long bevel, the narrow a short one, so that each fits the top and bottom interchangeably. The narrow ring is used next to the bottom plate, for whole dentures where the parting is at the rim of the plate. By using the wide ring next to the bottom, an admirable Flask is obtained for deep cases and partial sets, or where the artificial rim rests on the natural. The plaster runs into the holt's in the bottom plate, so that when set the plate is attached to the ring for the time being as firm as if made of a piece with it. The heads of the bolts arc T- shaped to fit the slots in the bottom plates, and are free at both ends. The general shape of the rings is that of a heart, thus economizing in the use of plaster. The ease with which the plaster is removed is not the least of the advantages. Two sizes, with inside measurements of the rings at the parting line as follows : Regular, 1A inches deep, 2§ inches across the narrowest part.—from the point to the depression between the two lobes.—and 3J inches at the widest part. Extra large, If inches full x 2* inches full x 3] inches. The bolts in the extra large size are correspondingly heavier. Made in malleable iron nickel-dipped, and brass. The Star Flasks can be closed with our flask presses, or, without bolts in the Donham Spring Clamp (see page 11).
