    Default Jowo housing - feed project

    Thinking about modifying ebonite feeds to use in a Jowo #6 housing to support dip nibs in them.

    1. What size feed is best to use as a base?
    2. Where can i source these feeds?
    3. What is the simplest way of working with the material.

    TIA

    Ebonite can be cut, filed, sawed, sanded easily.
    Whatever works with wood will work also with ebonite.

    Have you looked at Flexible Nib Factory?

    Nice links, thanks.

    Looks like the flexible nib factory is a bit too expensive for what I want to do.

    fprevolution seems the way to go.

    Is it the 6.3 flex feed that I should be working with?
