| Several members in our extended family share the use of a Clipper 2B.
It goes this this fast: Chigga-chigga-chigga-chigga-chigga-chigga-chigga......
Probably about 150 to 200 RPM, with pulleys to the motor sized appropriately. Grandpa bought it when electricity came through in 1953. (Sure would hate to crank it by hand). It's getting wore out - it shakes itself to pieces. Altogether, it cleans up to 20 tons a year!!! Grain all moved and bagged by hand.
The local farm museum has the same model - in considerably better condtion:
