Fire Breathing Dragon Master Template Brass Engraving For New Hermes Font Tray

For sale is a large FIRE BREATHING DRAGON brass master plate for a new Hermes engraver. This is so large it will not slide into the copy tray. It is mounted to your copy stops using the included hardware package and wrench. Please note that this is a very large template and has to be mounted sideways to allow the tracing stylus to trace the entire pattern. (SEE PICTURES) You must have the larger format engraving machine for this template to work.

This will not work on the smaller machines that have limited mechanical motion of the pantagraph. Please make sure that at a given ratio your machines stylus will trace around a rectangle that is approximately 6 x 11". You unscrew your brass thumbscrews and then insert the stainless steel set screws. Leave them loose and then place the template over the set screws which will automatically set the spacing. Then lightly tighten the set screws with the hex wrench.

Then just add the brass thumb nuts and tighten it. 
This large plate is attached to a piece of plywood to protect it during shipping. This is mailed in a small box. If you pay by noon we will mail this the same day for faster service. Thank you for looking.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE HARDWARE KIT THAT IS SUPPLIED HAS FINE THREAD METRIC HARDWARE (5MM .8 PITCH). THIS FITS 99% OF THE MACHINES IN CIRCULATION. HOWEVER THERE ARE A FEW MACHINES OUT THERE THAT USE A (SAE) #10-24 UNC AMERICAN PITCH THREAD ON THE COPY STOPS. IF THIS IS YOU PLEASE REQUEST THE 10-24 HARDWARE KIT WITH YOUR PLATE OR THE METRIC VERSION WILL BE INCLUDED BY DEFAULT. IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF WHICH THREAD YOU HAVE I HAVE INCLUDED A PICTURE FOR YOUR REFERENCE SHOWING THE DIFFERENCE IN THE THREAD PITCH.

WE WANT TO BE SURE THAT THE HARDWARE IS CORRECT FOR THE MACHINE THAT YOU ARE USING SO THAT YOU MAY BEGIN USING IT THE DAY YOU RECEIVE IT.
