Morning all! Mr. Nitz, I just added a bell skiver to my life and was just wanting to ask a quick question.
do you keep your feed roll perfectly parallel to the knife edge? I notice in your videos you only adjust your presser foot depth and angle. also would you suggest switching to a rubber style vs "stone" feed roll? Looking forward to the tutorial on them ;)
thank you!!

Hi Peter,
Instead of creating a new post, I thought it would be best to add my question here as it pertains to the same topic.
Should the feed roller and bell knife always run at the same speed or would we want to be able to adjust the speed at which the feed roller rotates while having the bell knife constantly running at full speed?
I hope this makes sense.
hi guys did you find a supplier of rubber feed balls?
Hi Tyler,
Congrats on getting a skiver! it will change your life :-)
You should have a rubber ball feed, not a stone one. And keep it perfectly parallel to the knife with just the space of a very thin piece of paper between.
Tutorial on the bell knife coming in a couple months!
