Mareko Deep Platen
The Mareko Deep Platen is a combination of a flat platen, 4” contact wheel, and slack belt. It was designed by knifemaker Mareko Maumasi to provide maximum value and efficiency as it minimizes tool changes. The extra depth allows the user to work both sides of the platen without the tool arm interfering with the work. This is particularly important when removing stock and when contouring handles. This platen is a great alternative and cost reduction to having a dedicated flat platen and a contact wheel.
Adjustable Work Rest
The adjustable Work rest has been designed for maximum tilting in both directions as well as height adjustability. It is great for cutting false edges, bevels, clip points, octagonal handles, and fullers with our fullering tool. The work rest is constructed of 5/16 and 3/8 thick plate steel to ensure durability and stability. The double pinch design was chosen to eliminate accidental rotation typically observed with other adjustable tool rest designs that use a round bar and set screws for adjustment. The adjustment handles also allow full adjustment without the need of tools for ease of use and maximum efficiency.
Buffing Wheel Attachment:
This attachment utilizes a sanding belt to drive a 5/8-11 threaded arbor. This arbor size is commonly used in readily available wire wheels and buffing wheels. This attachment comes with the wheel, arbor, mounting bracket, and hardware.
Note:
A variable-speed drive system is required for this attachment. All wheels used on the arbor are to be operated at their rated rpm.
Disc Sander Attachment:
This attachment utilizes a sanding belt to drive a precision ground 9-inch disk plate. It comes with a mounting bracket, drive wheel, 9-inch plate, and all the necessary hardware. Sandpaper and adhesive are not included.
Note:
A variable-speed drive system is required for this attachment. All wheels used on the arbor are to be operated at their rated rpm.
Integral Bolster and Fullering Attachment:
The Brodbeck Integral Bolster and Fullering Attachment features 3 different roller sizes 5/8", 7/8", 1-1/8". They are easily swapped out without tools, and there are no adjustments needed. The platen is fixed in place and made of thick steel that will not warp with heat.
This attachment also doubles as a fullering tool. The rollers stick out past the holder so there is no interference with anything.
Note:
A variable speed drive system is required for this attachment. The 5/8 & 7/8 rollers are only rated to 20000 rpm.
Quick-Change Accessory Arm:
This can be used to mount our Small Wheel Attachment, Integral Attachment, Buffing Attachment, Disk Sander and more to come. It is used in place of the Platen D-plate. It comes with a quick-change adjustable mounting plate, a 1.5-inch square aluminum arm, and the necessary hardware.
NO welding is required for assembly.
