Good Morning Curtis Nice bit of work however I'm more fascinated by the indexing mechanism which looks really cool.Any chance for a picture of the whole rig?

"Well" It worked. All that I did was to set the router back into the grove it made on the first pass, and then move the carriage up one thread on the acme lead screw. "When Life hands you a Lemon, Make Lemonade." Is how I think of it. ;-) Have a great day. C.A.G.

Very interesting curt with a ½ inch cutter and 2 start I would normally do a 1 inch pitch so using ¼ of the pitch normally used It made a interesting spiral i have never seen that before looks good Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com [mailto: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com ] On Behalf Of CURTIS GEORGE Sent: Sunday, 19 April 2015 10:20 AM To: Legacy-Ornamental-Mills Subject: A roped Wooden handle. Hello Everyone. With all this pen turning stuff (topic's) that we have been taking about last week, got me thinking, why not do something a little different along the pen turning lines. Well here it is!Something a bit different. ;-) A roped wooden handle for a jig that I am making. The handle is 3/4" thick, Brazilian cherry . with a 3/8" steel shaft running through the wood, I used my 1/2" pen roping bit to make the wooden handle part, I used a 2 stat rope with a 1/4" pitch. I know this is not a big project, but after working a 10 hour day, at work,I needed to get out in the shop and escape form reality for at least a short time.and un-wind. I though it turned out well. and wanted to share with all of you. If anyone what's to know more, Please feel free to ask. talk to you all latter.
