Bing rammer - or not?
« on: May 23, 2021, 01:57:15 pm »
Got this wooden based drive model from a seller in Vienna years ago. I suspect that it is a Bing rammer. The construction time is also unknown to me.

Does anyone have any information here? I would be pleased.

Hello, Jurgen
 
 I have a couple of wood based Bing accessories, a butter churn and a line shaft. They have the GBN with the dot's in a 4 corner star pattern. The base sides on those its just right angle cut with a red stain. The tops are shiny natural wood like yours. Not a good match for you hammer, which is very nice.

Hello Juergen - I am not familiar with your model but when
compare with my "Bings" there is hardly much correspondence.
My tendency is more in direction of Plank - take a look
to the picture of a hot air motor. Similar Pillar with
Bullet top and wooden base in same way. Anyway - very nice
and like new status..

Hello Bob, hello Arnold,

thank you for your answers. Marking of any kind is missing on the model. Would make things easier. The wooden foundation does indeed bear a striking resemblance to the Plank hot air motor foundation.

I will just keep looking and watching. Maybe someone will contact me who has recognized the model or has a catalog in which it is listed.

Hi,
as I'm not very interested in stampers, so my knowledge about them is very less, but browsing my database its probably not a BING or DOLL, FALK, PLANK or MÄRKLIN...
My first thoughts were it could be a HESS... unfortunately HESS did only made double stampers and they looked different...  :'(
It also could be a KRAUSS(& MOHR) or a PRIMUS (Zschopau) but they also look different...
The bell-shape of the stampers is very charcteristic and should be an identifying fact.
I guess its likely more ARNOLD or BECKER who produced this one.
