Beall Pen Wizard Parts Identification ?

[Bob Roehrig]

Hello all......have a good lead on a used Pen Wizard in excellent condition. Fella never used it so does not know what many of the parts do. Has several of the parts laying on a board. Looking at them I have no idea what they are for and what purpose if any they serve on the machine. I've attached a picture below in hopes maybe someone can help identify what they are and if they indeed go with the machine. From left to right it starts out with a small plastic bags that looks as if it has a spring and some other small parts. Skip the allen keys, Then theres a steel sleeve with an open slot going vertically in it. last is a steel round block....possible something is missing off of this??? Any help would be appreciated since no one I know has any idea what these are. Thanks in Advance.

I suggest you look up the instructions for that machine. They are out there. There are videos of it being used as well. There use to be many u-tube videos out there. Look for those. he also put out a DVD that was lengthy that explained how the tools worked. Would be a great find if you can get that. Maybe ask around if anyone has that too. Many ways to attack the new adventure you are taking on.

Hi John, Yes, been trying to find someone to burn me a copy of the Beall original CD that came with the machine... No luck so far. To bad something like this is not in the IAP libary for all to reference. I"m sure finding a disck to copy is going to prove to also be a challenge. Bet Jerry Beall has a stack of them sitting in his bedroom

Have you tried looking in the Wayback Machine for Jerry's pages from 10 years ago?

Have you tried looking in the Wayback Machine for Jerry's pages from 10 years ago?

Sounds great but not sure how to access those pages. Could you please explain.......thanks

I gave them to you for his time here. Those were the posts he made here. Look his name up in search if my links are not opening. As for utbe videos, he did a few. Not sure if he did other web sites. 2010 was last time he was here with us.

Not what I had in mind. (I was talking about Jerry's website, not his posts here.) Read my next reply to Bob for details.

"The Wayback Machine" is an internet archive that stores copies of web sites as they are at a specific instant. And it keeps them, going back decades, allowing you to look at a website which perhaps doesn't exist any more, as it was the day the copy was made.

I get there using a Google search for "wayback machine" and this is the first result listed:

Click on that link, it takes you here, and type in the site you are looking for (you have to know its address, but I can guess this one)

First display is a calendar showing the available image dates that are in the archive:

Choose a date that is likely to hold the information you're seeking - I picked February 2015 (you can step backwards and forwards in time if this misses the information you are trying to find):

Click the "Instructions" link, as there's a pretty good chance that's where I'll find what I'm looking for - hey, look what I got, a list of all Jerry's instruction docs available on that date.

Usually the document links are live and PDFs are also archived, but sometimes the web designer made it difficult for the wayback machine to index and retrieve them.

Hope this helps.

I can't really tell what the part is in the first photo. In the second photo the gear looks like it is the 12 tooth gear that matches up with the 60 tooth gears. The other part may be the crank for the Guilloche attachment (see the photo). I'm not sure what the tube is on the left.

Hi.....got into the Wayback Machine site. Unfortuanately the menue items they had for the Pen Wizard are items already published on YouTube and available on the IAP site which I already have. Thanks for tip. The site looks good and very useful. Will bookmark it.

Yes, the round disc did go with the Guilloche attachment. Now back on the machine and glad to know it's an integral part that's important. The round tube with the slit is a mystrey and I really don't believe it goes with the machine itself as well as that spring with nut and "O"Rings. Glad that's cleared up.....now just looking for some better instructions on it's use. Not quite familar with the machine and with all the gears, slides, rods, and adjustment it's a little intimidating. Jerry Beall once had many video's on YouTube but for some reason deleted them and there's only 3 video's of his left on YouTube. Will keep looking and thank again for your help.
