Knuckle thread #2

[Juan_Hong_Loe]

Sure it would be a lot quicker the more we did, but like I said still dont get to use the equip. enough to justify. Also if we had a fixture to bolt them to, wouldn't take but just a little time. There again a lot of work just for the little time we get to play. dunno If I had the equip. I would def. look into doing some.

Kelly, dad and I have been looking for one for quite sometime. We haven't been able to find one that is a good compromise of $'s over quality. Its either worn out and reasonable, or nearly worn out and high dollar.
I will have a mill in '08, that and I'm looking for a larger lathe. The lil' bitty one that dad has is awesome for so many things, but its for small parts. I want one to thread links and part off parts.

That all said, I've got 5 knuckles that I'd toss in the pile for modifications. (Yeah one spare)

I am more interested in the plating than the keying

 

[blacksheep10]

the plating is pretty easy. I'm going to burn out a mess of plates that are made to fit and brake them so they are just held up to it and burned in. the keying otoh is done by a mill, which I don't have.
3 tons, he was saying you left out punctuation and rambled, just like I do laughing

Oh, I wasn't even thinking about punctuation, I thought i used an inverted prepositional phase with a conjunction. :flipper:
