Knurling tool E.Riley stile

<< < (5/6) > >>

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

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.

I used to knurl on a Hobbymat MD65 , with Scissor   knurl holders , cant see what the problem is  :scratch:

  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:
