I have a rotary platen that I am going to sell, I have a Bader 111 and this is really set up for a KMG machine. I got this from a friend that had bought it to use for straight knives and then changed to slip joints. He maybe have used it a couple of hours. I have had it for about a year now and the only thing I've done with it is borrow a arm that a friend had to try it on my machine to make sure it would work. I played around with it but since I also make slip joints, for a 2 or 3 inch blade I didn't see where I was going to use it. Total time on this is probably 3 hours. I did buy another belt for it before I tried it so that also goes. I looked up the price for a new one, It was priced at $473.00 plus It cost me about $45.00 for the belt.

I'm selling for $385.00 with me paying shipping

This is sold.

I am looking at my parts, haven't rotary joints drilled the mast yet, and wonder how I could avoid doing it. For the engine rails, no problem, I can drill holes so that the bolts are outside of the tube. The weight of rotary union the engine though would be distributed between the rear support tube (26) and the seat braces (8). What about possible chaffing and metal fatigue due to fiber optic rotary joint flexing? The rails (24) are 1/4''. Is there enough surface (2x2) to prevent the rails from moving?
