Equipment
The
# EH 48S Iron is a hand held electrically powered embossing
tool. It has a bronze casting, with an embedded 115 volt AC, 75 watt heating
element, which holds a shaft for mounting brass gilding rolls and accessories.
The brass rolls are heated by the tooling iron and through a combination
of pressure and speed emboss gold leaf onto leather. These brass rolls
can also be used without gold leaf for "blind" tooling of leather. The
unit is balanced and controlled by a long wooden ergonomically friendly
handle that feeds an electric cord to a power source. The heating unit
is 115 volts A/C, 75 watts.
The
Automatic Foil Holder consists of a precision right angle
shaft and two acrylic discs that mount on either side of a roll of gold
leaf foil. The guide attaches to the end of the gilding roll shaft by
means of a setscrew and is fully adjustable. Light pressure applied to
either side of the leaf, allow the leaf to feed smoothly down under the
gilding roll. Foil is automatically fed under the gilding roll as the
tool is moved. Foil widths as narrow as 3/8" can be mounted in the foil
holder.
The
Outside Guide allows straight lines of pattern to be
applied without the use of rulers or straight edges. It is adjustable
to different lengths and comes complete with one axle extension. It is
comprised of a heat resistant roller and an extension shaft to reach out
to the edge of the desk or table. The guide attaches to the EH 48S tooling
iron by extending the roll mounting shaft, these extensions allow the
guide roller to contact the edge of the desk. When fitted properly to
the iron the guide rolls along the outside of the desk or table. Note,
the guide will not work on all the panels of a three panel desk.
The
Rheostat Control delivers constant and consistent amperage
to the EH 48S Tooling Iron and the # 16 Hand Stamp. The resulting constant
temperature allows long lines of leafed design to be applied evenly without
smearing or slipping. The rheostat control plugs directly into standard
wall outlets and the cords from the tooling iron and hand stamp plug directly
into it.
The
# 16 Hand Stamp is a hand held electrically powered embossing
tool. The tool is used to apply designs or logos on wood or gold leaf
on leather. This tool has an embedded 75 watt heating element and shaft
which mounts brass corner, center, or specialty stamps. These decorative
brass stamps are heated by the electric hand stamp and with pressure emboss
gold leaf onto leather
The Stub Shaft is used in conjunction with the # 16
Electric Hand Stamp. Install one in each corner stamp and center stamp
to allow quick and easy design changes.
Replacement
Heating Element Cartridges are available for the EH 48 S tooling
iron and comes with extra long leads.
