It took about 6 hours just to knurl the 2 inch steel rollers

This is me knurling the rollers.
You guys are probably fun at parties, I bet
Home made, self made, wtf. Either way the man has mad machining skills - and access to Big Boy Tools that I'd love to have
Looking forward to the rest of the build!
Cheers!
?? I made it myself from sctratch at my machine shop at "work".
It's called "OJT"......On the job training..........I'm forced to do it myself sometimes..........

Hay where did you end up buying your eccentric bushings from? I think I am going to build me a larger mill for the brewery but I am having a hell of a time finding them.
Cheers

Grain is pretty abrasive. I wonder what this will look like 12 months from now?I decided to make my hopper out of 3/8 lexan. Thought it might be cool to see the milling in action.
