Nice looking job you have done. The attention to detail,s makes your new knurler
look top notch. I see attention to details through out your build. I know most don.t bother, and you did!

Damn Nice Looking Job

Hehehe. Thanks!

I had "Scissor Knurl" on the brain because this project started life as a Ti version of the scisor knurl in the latest issue of HSM. Obviously, I abandoned Ti and the whole scissor concept and made a Straddle Knurler instead.

.... In addition, it is autiomatically self centering.

Hi guys, sorry for resurrecting this ancient post but, if I may, could I comment on the 'self centering' feature? I did not come up with this theoretically, had to try my go on this straddle type tools, easily found out that self-centering is still an issue on this. Thinking about it I understand that, unless there is a pivot in the center of the vertical piece, self-centering cannot be achieved...
What do you say?
