426 forum posts 1 photos	Hi all, Does anyone use cut knurling tools rather than the more usual forming or compression knurls? I have just bought some cut knurling tools and wondered if anyone had any ups for their use? I have downloaded the Quick tools instruction manual for the tools I have and it seems straight forward, but I wonder about the diameter of the workpiece in relation to the pitch of knurl required. I will do some experiments when the snow clears from my shop door and report back. Mick

Prepare yourself for some awesome results, cut knurling is fantastic!
