Well, I bit, on an ebay auction for a tilting rotary table, with a Burnerd 4 inch tommy-bar operated chuck on it.
It appears to either be Deckel, or possibly Alexander, which would suit me pretty well as I have an Alexander Panto Engraver.
Probably overpaid, as it is a bit modified, it looks as they cut out some of the mainbase casting to allow clearance for the chuck to tilt further up.

Should have a graduated thimble and a pointer on the end opposite the locking lever, I think.
Comments?
Anyone got any of the history of the relationship between Deckel and Alexander? Did Alexander just rip off Deckel, or were they licensing the products they made as clones, or...???
