Great job! I didn't expect knurling to work. Those are very hard rollers and yet hollow. I thought they'd need too much pressure on a lathe. My guy was hesitant to knurl.

By the way I think you meant 0.050".

This is great, I have an old pasta machine somewhere around the house I will have to dig out. Might try some different methods to see what kind of traction I can get on the rollers.

FWIW, Hobby Lobby usually has a 40% off coupon every other week. Just go to hobbylobby.com and click on "Weekly Specials". I picked up some rare earth magnets while I was there too for a stir plate.

You are right. Too many zeros.

I am not going to complain for $26.50 invested so far and some scrap wood for a hopper.

Can anyone tell me how to get the rollers off of the machine? I got one of the sides off but can't for the life of me figure out how to pull the rollers off. Thanks

Mine had a couple long bolts that ran side to side that kept the sides together and some screws holding the side to the base. You might want to try and rough up the rollers with a drill bit before you take the sides off.

That looks like it would work. I have this one: Amazon.com: V177 AL DENTE Pasta Machine: VillaWare: Home & Garden

Most people have used a drill to automate their mill. You can modify the crank arm that comes with it or use a 3/8 inch paddle bit like this: http://www.irwin.com/irwin/consumer/jhtml/detail.jhtml?prodId=IrwinProd100186

The paddle bit fits right into the slot the crank arm goes in.
