Gazz Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I looked at one today that seems smaller than the ones I find online. It has a round ram sliding in a cylinder and overall seems more delicate than the 30lb hammers that are showing up. It also seems to have little finesse and seems to always hit hard with basically no easy way to strike lightly no matter how careful you are on the treadle. The clutch plate is marked The K RR Hard CO Red Oak Iowa and NOT Kerrihard. Anybody know about these? I have made an offer on it but am wondering about size and ruggedness. It is less than delicate in operation yet it's size seems to indicate it is for small stuff. Thanks for any comments! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason0012 Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Later model kerrihard. They were trying to reduce cost with these. I knew a shop in Tulsa that had one, but it is the only one I have seen in person. If I remember correctly these were a last gasp before the company closed up in the 30s(?)
