spaceman Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 That isnt a knurling process, looks like something of an old milling finish ;p the worst finish on a S.F guage for millingYep, spindle speed too slow, and feed rate too fast.

Fat-White-Boy Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 (edited) Hahaha, i have a Singapore stop on my bike (24uk) and ive had it on my last bike, absolutely fooking mint, The boys from ang mo kio showed me how to do it. Works amazingly with plazmatics, its like a really really really harsh grind that last fooking ages, the thing that makes it special is that its done by hand. Works equally good in wet and dry. Best grind ive ever had. Ill take a photo and slap it up later. o yea, and all those photos aren't what ive come to know as singapore stops Edited April 6, 2008 by Fat-White-Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I think I know what you mean... hacksaw?Didn't you do that years ago, cutting a load of grooves into a 521 CD rim with a hacksaw?

I remember it taking ages and being nowhere near as good as a grind I can't remember... it's possible though, haha. I can see how it would work really well, just a lot of effort when you could just whip the grinder out. Might have a play on some old rims this week...

Fat-White-Boy Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I think I know what you mean... hacksaw?you gottit, once you get the hang of it its pretty quick, ive had the same grind for 2 years and ill probably brake the rim before i need to grind it again. Might not suit everyone, not saying its the best, but i love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
