Description:

K. R. Wilson was best known as a maker of specialized tools and fixtures for repairing Ford cars; this patent number was seen on a K. R. W. rear axle pinion gear press. But he was also a maker of presses including an ingenious hydraulic press with mechanical downfeed that combined the convenience of hydraulics with the sensitivity of a mechanical press. During World War II, every U. S. Navy ship with a machine shop reportedly had a K. R. Wilson press.
