Fall/Winter 2008: I am gradually rebuilding this site with a new CMS and a new design.
It is a small pedestal machine.
Friedrich Deckel. Type G.I. Machine No. 2751.
A close-up of the pantograph arms with engraved graduated scale.
The spindle mechanism.
The spindle is easily removed from the machine.
Top half of the spindle assembly, disassembled (gulp!)…
…and the bottom half of the spindle assembly. Spindle arbor and pulley should separate but are too tight to remove by hand.
A very few samples of recent work…
