First summa issue in 10 years.... need help

[Kottwitz-Graphics]

After 10 + years of running my Summa D60, I've run into my first major issue. The plastic blade holder has broken... snapped in half.

Is this a repairable part, or do I have to replace the head?

Anyone else have this happen? What was the cost for repair?

When you say blade holder do you mean the cylindrical holder with the screw adjustment for the blade depth? or the clamp that holds that in the head?
If its the holder its readily available from Summa.

Its the clamp on the head that holds the blade holder. I e-mailed Summa, and I'm hoping that its not the $500 and change part.... I've got some photos that I took and sent them, but I can't figure out how to attach them on the new board...

Send me the pics. I've got two D60U plotters that are scrap. If the parts are still on them I'll pull them off and send them to you. Heck, I can send you the whole dang head for that matter.
