aah .. rusty iron.. incurable addiction.. . Just chiming in as I'm just about to start on a Fortuna skiver restore ... This I need to actually do some work with.. (who am I kidding ).. the other skiver -a "Forma" needs work on the knife worm gear and a bearing replacement..but not much to do. Watching on your progress! -

Are they tri - point needles? Curious as I have some (794 system) not put through their paces yet...held for a particular job.

As requested.. As shown this is heavily worn but is an insert plate so can be replaced (on the todolist .. about 32 down...lol.. second skiver resurrection is 1st)
