I have a cutter grinder but that bit is incredibly sharp still. I cannot think of how many thousands of desk signs and badges I have beveled and the carbide cutter is like the Energizer rabbit. You will be using an unused portion of the cutter then. In an emergency you can move the spindle away from you a bit and then lower it. One additional, I cannot see from the picture, but on my model there is also an adjustment for near and far for the cutting assembly. If you call Gravograph (New Hermes) and provide the model number, you should be able to get documentation for that model. I'd be happy to sharpen them for you, or you could send them off to any number of engraving supply houses. If there's enough carbide remaining, they can be resharpened at a fraction of the cost of new. You don't necessarily need to buy new cutters. The shank size for that model is (typically) 1/8'. Also, I probably need to replace the spring that the motor mount uses for tension and the belt and was hoping there were part #s for them in the manual.Īlso, the cutters are dull so I figured that the manual might have a shank size so I can order new ones.

The only thing I know is that the b-3 came b4 the B-4.īasically, you have a horizontal and vertical adjustment for the cutter. The big question.does anyone have a manual for this they could copy or scan for me?

Anyone know how the B-3 differed from the B-4 and B-5. So I finally got a New Hermes Beveler off of e-Bay.
