That honeymoon has been in Portland within this month and another add was there last summer.
it's funny the info we get reading the net.. first thing I ever read on how many names national used was around 2/300 and there was a known list. then more recently ( 2/3 yrs) I read the 600, so far haven't see the 1000+
The same fallows with how many you had to order to get your name on the arm. so far the 5 has only been on here ..I have to assume that would be true if they only did a simple design and only changed the name.
you'll see all machine got smaller handwheels when they went Electric, in nationals case they tiny wheels.. note that any machine you see using the tiny wheel is also a fiction wheel drive.
This was done to control the machines speed/torque think of this as the gear ratio
look at the size of the pulleys on the motor/hand wheel of a belt drive unit , then do the same on a fiction wheel drive machine remember the fiction wheel drives at the outside of the handwheel
