| Fergus OMore:
I think that Mr Riley would have a Myford or perhaps a Boxford so perhaps the Sieg might be OK. I confess that I am one of these of the old school who leans heavily on an earlier brigade of people like Euclid. Pythagoras, a dash of Da Vinci and a more 'with it' set like Maudsley and Holzapffel. Perhaps people have never heard of them and as for proving theorems- no, not really. So don't mind me as some of you come into a lot of expensive surprises. Have fun Norman |

You should have no problem building that knurler with just a mini lathe. I made the slightly more complicated Hemingway knurler with just an old Myford ML7. All the rest of the work shaping the arms and plates etc was done with files and a hacksaw. It works very well. See below. |

Hello again from Colorado, Thanks for all the feedback and encouragement. I just have to decide which kit to get, and source some additional knurls (looking for something more decorative). Might be a while, but I'll try to post some pics when it's done. going fishing now, Lou |

Looks like you are after "rope knurls" and suchlike, Lou. I think they may be hard to find nowadays, but you could try making your own: http://www.frets.com/HomeShopTech/Projects/RopeKnurl/ropeknurl.html Andy |
