irnsrgn Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 In my opinion it would be very well suited to that type of operation. The people who have used the two that I have made say they are equivalent to a 25# LG in operation, it has the speed and force ideal for fusing billets and it also has excellent control just like the Depew I more or less copied them after. The only change I would make is a bit larger motor probably a 1/2 hp. Like I keep telling people if you increase the top die weight you are gonna have to slow it down. As far as I know, there have been 3 clones of it in various forms made. One in Oz, one in Mississippi, and I can't remember the 3rd one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
