Ok thanks guys for the input

350rpm is what I have read elsewhere also. It just seems really fast to me. As a beginner like myself would I be better off to run it slower than that? Also it has wooden clutch pads that are rotting. Is there a better material to use or should I put wood back on it? Thanks in advance!

I'm completely new to all this and I just acquired a star #50 hammer. It has not been updated to an electric motor. I'm looking for some input on rpm and motor size? Any input is greatly appreciated!
