EK1 Otto Schickle

Thanks:
I got the left hoping it to have a brass core but it did not .
I had no idea until I got the right brass core EK2 that there was even a difference .
Looking at them by themselves you do not see it . I bet there are a few here that may have both cores and do not even know it !

thanks for the comparison fotos. I'm a schickle fan but i never knew about the different cores. learning information like this is what this fourm is all about.

[Douglas 5]

A few other makers also have slightly different core sizes . As shown here in EK2s we find 2 cores used - made in various materials - iron, nickel and brass .
I would note that we possibly may find 2 cores used in EK1s also - I have not found any yet .

the left side very misleading because the judging from the picture it ,looks like copper
but this is just a primer paint
with such the in color
This is a magnetic core

the left side very misleading because the judging from the picture it ,looks like copper
but this is just a primer paint
with such the in color
This is a magnetic core
and the middle cross is have thin swaz
such type yet not I met this In addition to

the right side non magnetic core
