Members Zacharyc Posted March 26, 2018 Author Members Report Posted March 26, 2018 Oh yeah I got that much. Thing works great. It is a testament to German engineering. Heats right up. Was just curious about the history of this thing. It weighs a TON! Quote

Members Nuttish Posted April 3, 2018 Members Report Posted April 3, 2018 Neat that it was made for the US market. It looks like Leonhard Kurtz now makes foils and has subsidiaries for machinery and tools. What you've got has some of the same design features as a small Baier, so I'm thinking they have made your machine with the Leonhard Kurtz label before getting bought out in 2012. Super nice looking machine. Would you mind taking a picture from the front please? I'm curious what the typeholder and table look like. BTW it's easy to update the machine to use a cheap PID to get more stable temps than were possible with the kinds of switches on older machines. http://www.kurz.de/en/ http://www.baier-praegetechnik.de/baier/en/home.nsf/contentview/0A213D52B1109457C1257BFA003555A7 Quote
