Use these wheels on your lathe or Millgrain Machine to create professional decorative borders around the edges of rings or bracelets. “Male” tools have raised beads. (To see a sample of each design, please click the "Additional Images" link under the picture.)
To use, mount ring on lathe, and cut a flat shoulder (using a turning tool) into each edge of the ring. Bring the Millgrain Wheel onto the shoulder - only 8 revolutions are necessary to imprint the design.
Wheels are 6mm in diameter, mounted on 1/8" square x 2-1/2"L steel shanks. Each wheel is hardened and tempered to provide clean, well-defined imprints and to ensure long tool life. Wheel pins (axles) are hardened and ground for precision fit, which prevents excessive wheel wear.
