  • what happened to the threading vids. I need to watch them again.

  • Hi I am afraid there was an error on the threading video that someone complained about s I have removed it for now.

  • Do you not have to line up the two rollers so the pattern is lined up on both rollers?

  • No there is no need. The rollers on this type of knurler float to a certain extent so as long as the diameter of the work piece is a multiple of the knurling tool pitch the pattern should come out fine.

  • Hi, this is a helpful "Tutorial".

    Sound sometimes gets a little "overdriven", it is understandable anyhow.

    How do i find out how much pitch my knurling scissors have ?

    I often get "dirty" results: multiple rows overlap and destroy the diamonds pattern,

    I guess this might have its reason in the diameter.

  • You can use a thread pitch guage the same as finding the pitch on a bolt for example.

  • It is my understanding that knurling tools do not "cut" the material but simply displace it. Because of this, knurling is often used to enlarge existing diameters where a friction fit can then be applied to two mating parts.

  • you said it needs to be a multiple of 1mm... so 9.37562739mm is a multiple of 1mm see:

    9.37562739 X 1mm = 9.37562739mm :P pwn'd

  • I have not knurled but suspected the diameter of the piece played a part in not over cutting the initial pattern. This helped, thank you.

  • Great vid helped me alot thanks  mike

  • Awesome, I have a knurling attachment but I've never known how to use it.  Thanks.

  • I ONES MILLED MY SELF A LATHE AND THEN LATHED ME NEW MILL

  • Thank you for another great video!

  • I like your pointm i canm with Knearl
