Note
Stands on which a cutting or laying press is placed for cutting the edges of bookblocks. Tubs were originally made of wooden staves held together by hoops and acted as a bin into which discarded pieces of paper, textile, etc. could be thrown and in which it would appear pulp boards could also be made.
