JARECKI THREADER
The Jarecki threader came from the old brewery in DuBois, Pennsylvania.
The brewery was razed in the early 1980s but this machine was saved.
Since the brewery was entirely a steam-powered plant, the threader was
also steam-powered. Indeed, it is shown in the Jarecki catalog. Note
the small steam engine built into its side. The drive belt from the
Callahan goes over the steam engine's flywheel. It can thread pipe from
one inch through four inches, and it has been used frequently.
