The one from WWT is different they sell both. Look at the top. One is a solid piece. The other has a c-ring holding the bearing down as well some of the fit and finish looks a little better. Still not worth 200$ but if I see one on eBay I can spot the difference now.
I believe they were a swash gen 1 clone , only total crap and not a very long throw for a rotary. I have to admit I have one in my top drawer but only paid about £20 for it . It was my first toe dipping into rotaries and nearly turned me off for life.
I would've been really pissed off had I paid 200$.
Yeah I don't think I would ever buy one. I saw an eBay auction recently touting it as a real jackhammer machine and not tge regular Chinese crap. All I was ever wondering was if there was say a "stealth" in the crap gen 1 swash clones. And there might be. Dose not mean I would buy one.
I think I may have one with the C clip tucked away in a drawer somwhere, I'll see if I can track it down. It was sold as a jackhammer and I did try it and even managed to work with it but soon went back to the steaths I was using at the time.
Well if you don't want much money for it, I might take it for a test drive.
to me it looks like the chinese... i have 2
There aren't even parts to salvage off one unless you can unshrink heatshrink tubing.
had the cheap copy and the original of this machine......theres a mountain of difference in how they work.
same thing for the swash drive copy as well. gen 6 copy was exactly the same shape and only for a bit of writing on the side you couldnt see any difference....until you turned them on.
DONT BUY CHEAP SHITE FROM CHINA....OR FOLKS SELLING IT.
so ... there is an original ?
Yes it looks like it. In the sense that the stealth is an original Swiss clone. The first swash gen1 clone is the Jackhammer and is built better than the others it would seem. I haven't used one yet.Quote:
