XTS Wide Angle Cap Frame Driver (RED) Kit

[ErinsExpressions]

Does anyone know if the XTS Wide Angle Cap Frame Driver (RED) Kit includes the cap gauge? It says "kit" on Melco's website but doesn't tell you what is in the kit.

Update - my sales rep got back with me and the kit does not include the cap gauge (only the cap driver and 2 cap frames).

What part is actually the "cap gauge"?

[MJ]

Is it the part that screws onto something and holds the frame while you put the cap on it?
I have duplicates of the cap equipment, and one set I've never used.

[ErinsExpressions]

It is the part that attaches to the workstation/table - the base in which the cap frames slide.

I just purchased the "new and improved" cap framing system because I only purchased one set originally and after 5 years...it is beyond repair.

MJ
you would not happen to have an extra conventional cap frame that you want to sell,
I have been keeping my eyes open for one.

Thanks

Is the gauge the same for the new system? I would sell my gauge, if you were interested.

I'm not sure what the "conventional cap frame" looks like?

MJ - the gauge is different for the new system. My gauge from my original system is actualy fine (and so is the driver). The frames are just bent and the wingnuts are stripped. Once we did a trial in the showroom of the new system, we decided to go that route. We do alot of non-structured and lightly structured hats and the new system is alot easier for those.

[MJ]

Oh, OK, thanks for explaining it!

We don't do caps, so I'm not even sure what parts are needed, but I still have an unused #32198 wide angle driver if that is what anyone needs.
