The trip was supposed to be one to get the Gorton 375-4 Cutter Grinder (the smaller beige machine in the photo above). True, I had recently mused that it might be cool someday to have a 3-D pantograph. 'Be careful what you wish for - you may get it!' :-) Of course, an engraving machine requires cutters, so see - Notebook, and more particularly, within that, (the treatment of cutter grinding by Gorton is better than that in the Deckel manual). See also the. Because pantograph engravers are so often used as lettering machines, and because I first acquired mine for the (related, but distinct) purpose of making matrices for typefounding, I put the pantograph literature reprint section in.

So for general technical literature on pantograph engraving machines (including a lot on Gortons, but nothing yet on Deckels) see, and especially the Notebook. The GK 21 spindle collet is a Deckel proprietary spring collet which uses a non-locking taper and a nut to push the collet into the taper. The 'nose' of the collet sticks through the nut and its flat end is flush with the end of the nut. There is a neat arrangement of a flat on two sides of this 'nose' and a corresponding form on the nut which allows the collet and nut to be loosely (but securely) held together as a unit for ease in putting it into the spindle. For specifications, see -.

Measurement of the collets with this GK 21 show that it takes the System Deckel collet which has an overall length of 24 mm, a maximum diameter of 17.5 mm, and a taper (half) angle of 10 degrees. These have a maximum hole diameter of 8 mm. Such a collet is Simon Nann Gmbh&Co. KG article no. I don't presently know the actual Deckel designation for this size collet.
