Hi John,
I also have ERCO and Marchant machines.
And, like others say, the Marchant is for working heavy material - .090" and up.
The ERCO 1447 is designed specifically for aircraft sheet - .016" to .090".
We sell parts for the ERCO 1447 machines and service and rebuild them.
We also sell various hardened "compensator" plates (.135" and up to .375") to adjust the kick arm forward in the machine.
