It weighs 1,275 pounds, is made with jigs throughout,and has each part interchangeable. The shaft is of large diameterand supported by large bearings bored out from the press body. Theclutch is of special design, giving a high rate of speed, from 50 to 300revolutions. There are three shelves which can be detached from themachine. One shelf is for the screw driver, oil can, wrenches, etcThe other shelves are to receive tin, one before stamping, and afterstamping the scrap is thrown on the other shelf. This makes the.
