K Star

The K-STAR Carver is a two spindle, manual carving machine that makes two copies of a pattern per run. It can carve patterns up to 10 inches in diameter or width, powered by a 1/2 HP electric motor. The twin counter-rotating spindles eliminate side thrust and make it easy to use. It is built to last with a heavy-duty steel frame and cast parts. Maintenance is minimal, involving regular cleaning and occasional greasing.

K-STAR

The K-STAR Carver is a two spindle table top mount, manual carving machine, that makes two copies of a pattern
per run. Each of the three K-STAR models can carve up to 10" in diameter (360°) or a 10" width in flat backed
(relief) carvings. The standard carving length is 24", with options to 48" or 60". All K-STAR's are powered by a
1/2 HP industrial electric motor, turning the spindles at 11,000 RPM through a belt and pulley system. This motor
provides the power and durability needed for tough carving applications. The electricity needed is a standard wall
outlet, as the motor runs on 115 volt, 60 HZ, 1 phase and draws only 6 amps. The twin spindles are counter
rotating to eliminate the side thrust forces generated by the cutters. This feature makes the K-STAR easy to use
and smooth through the cutting operation. These spindles are mounted on sealed high speed spindle bearings for
long life and zero maintenance.

The K-STAR carving machine is built for many years of hard use with a minimum of maintenance. The frame is
precisely built from heavy wall steel tubing and welded into one rigid unit. The carriage is built of several heavy
casted parts to insure durability, but the sliding weight balance system allows the user a light touch and easy to
operate feel. All the maintenance required is to clean the rails and carriage wheels regularly and grease pivot
bearings, worm and worm gears occasionally.

The pattern and work blanks are held in place by driving spur heads in the stationary front beam and a dead center
in the sliding rear beam. A worm and worm gear system attached to the front beam allows the pattern and work
blanks to turn in unison with a crank on the left side of the machine. This system allows the carver to get to
within .015 of an inch when the machine is properly leveled and bits are sharp.
