Default Knobs - Drawer Pulls

I made this tutorial for a friend that lives a distance away and was struggling with how I make the pulls. I'm sure there are MANY way, but this works best for me.

I'd post a picture of a finished pull, but when I shrink the pixel # they photos get fuzzy! Sorry!

The tutorial is in a Word document - if you have MS Word you should be able to open and see....I thought I read somewhere on this forum that this type of document was OK. If you can't make it work and have a FAX number, PM me with the number and I'll FAX to you.

I converted it to a pdf for those who can't view Word documents. I hope that is OK, Lynn. If not, let me know and I will delete this post

You'll need to have a PDF viewer like Adobe's free Acrobat Reader or Adobe Reader installed to view it. (http://www.adobe.com)

Hey, Cass! Just back from the Bead & Button in Milwaukee...so didn't get a chance to get back to you till tonoc. What torch are you using? I'm on a Minor with O2 concentrator. You should never be letting the flame touch the threaded rod - if that's not the case, try turning down the propane or up the O2 for a cooler flame....it will take a little longer to make the pull, but you will get there. Also try working out a little further in the flame. If you are still having trouble, PM me and I'll see if I can improve on the info! Hang in there....they are worth it!

Lynn
