Oh, internet ******ry, how I've missed you.

Ericoseveins:

If you had any familiarity with the noted spoke machines, you would not have said:

"The Hozan tool is actually probably better and easier than a Morizumi/Phil/whatever for the purpose of just extending the existing threads a little bit"

The speed at which the machines get it done is faster than you can say "Ho" in Hozan...


DannoXYZ:

If the Phil really was doing that, I bet the dies were set a little too tight or slightly off alignment on an older machine. From memory, when rolling a fresh spoke through - did the ends feel very hot after exiting the back?.


So far, great thread...we went from anus to BS to male cow patties!
