What do you do when you have, lets say a boringhead or similar in the spindle?
Why are this head so fragile?
Have any of you actually damaged a head by tapping with a hammer, or is it simply because it's a 'deckel'?
On all other mills I work on, tapping on drawbar is the key to push out the taper?
From your reply, you seems to be kinda upset, that I even asked this question?
I just wondered if this really were such a death punch to do. Or if it only were a deckel fan, being scared of little tap.
Not to hurt any ones feelings. But sometimes I get the idea from here, that the deckels are collectors items, and not really a machine build to do actual work?
I don't know how many of you been in a 'real' shop, where machines are heavily used. I'm sure most would be shocked how machines are treaded sometimes [emoji16]
They are to many, a tool, build to make money. Not to last a lifetime, standing in a hobby shop, shining like a new.

Of course. That's my point.I have a 50+ year old HLV, 2* 30 year old BP's, 25 year old Makino CNC, 26 year old Fadal, 40(or so)year old Graziano SAG14 that get used every day. Used hard, but not abused. There's no reason these tools shouldn't outlast me, and provide another lifetimes worth of service to somebody else with reasonable care. The difference being I own these tools and look after them. (as a profit making enterprise and not a hobby shop)
He doesn't need to post a photo as it's obviously not an SK40...note the split casting that clamps the quill...only the MT 4 Head was done that way.Lars, your head has a stuck 355E collet holder in it. These collet holders (and the spindles that they went in) were made in two versions. One version was Morse Taper 4 and one version was SK40. Which is yours? If unsure, please post a photo showing the tool end of the vertical head. Cheers, Bruce
