Because these mechanisms are ceramic, they will grind salt, pepper and spices. A bottom mounted locking grind adjustment knob eliminates the need for an adjustment knob on top of the mill, and the snap-in fitting does not require the use of metal fasteners. This lack of restrictions opens up a whole new world of design possibilities for woodturners. Complete illustrated mounting instructions are included, both have a 25 year manufacturer's warranty.
Wood Mechanism is manufactured to give the greatest flexibility in mill design. With it, you can create traditional as well as up-side-down mills. It has ribs that will penetrate into the wooden housing to hold the mechanism horizontally and "catchers" that hold it vertically. Placement of the turning point is flexible which gives the mechanism its unique design characteristics. Although the simplest design is 4 to 8 inches high you can virtually build a mill as tall as you desire.
Shaft Mechanism is manufactured for traditionally designed mills. However, as a result of the bottom mounted locking grind adjustment knob, a metal adjustment knob at the top of the mill is not required. This gives you the freedom to create new and innovative stopper designs. This mechanism can be mounted using the built-in "catchers" or glued in place. The top is fixed into the stopper, which can be removed to re-fill the mill. Mill height can range from 5 to 12 inches.
