Wanted: Threaded hand wheels - RonB1957 - 10-21-2019
I have been looking for two threaded hand wheels. Either 3/4"-6 or preferably 1"-5 to be used for either a built in dovetail/ moxon, or a small moxon type work bench with drawers, longer rods, etc . I just need two, so I do not wish to buy the tooling/ taps to make my own. Thank you.

If you have blank handwheels a local machine shop with CNC could thread mill any size, pitch or style you want.

At a cost of approx. $100.00 per hour.

I built a Moxon vice and used threaded rod and a pipe connector with a wood handles.
