Vintage Marshallton Rotary Throatless Shear Metalshaping Circle Cutter Beverly

Description

Up for purchase is a 1930s era rotary shear. Cuts 11ga mild steel max. Rotary dies are chip free and do work. it will cut thin poster board but not printer paper. Machine was disassembled, sandblasted, cleaned and painted with automotive urethane. Machine frame was milled, drilled and tapped to accept an electric motor. Original plan was using an electric motor with a belt pulley in place of the hand wheel and VFD/foot pedal to operate. The large hand wheel has a few small hairline cracks but functions as it should. I did not paint the hand wheel figuring I would remove it for electric motor drive. Can palletize for a fee if needed. Buyer responsible for arranging freight. Machine weighs approx 250lbs. I have a fork lift on site to load
