Folder pivot

Hey Ed. Glad you had a good show, wife and I had a great time, found a little snow and ice on the way home, oh well.
I'm looking at making a couple of the folder pattern that I showed you and can't find the pivot we talked about in the MSC catalog. Do you have a part number for it? Thanks for the advise.
Kevin.

Hi Kevin!

It was good seeing you folks! Here's a link to the bronze bushings that I use.....

http://www1.mscdirect.com/CGI/NNSRIT...ber=3800Pmode=

I use them along with a 1/8" threaded "barrel" pivot...I take the bronze bushing down to about 1/2 thousandth thicker than the blade, then when I "clamp" down the pivot screws, it forces the blade to ride on the OD of the bushing.
