Neil , you could well be right , Ive never had any trouble knurling , when the knurl is done, it should look well defined and crisp is how i was taught ( B A C circa 1969 ) and nobody said any thing about diameter ( if diameter matters that much why dont knurls come in sets ? other than fine medium and course ) i do remember we used clamp type knurls, so when a marlco knurl showed up at right money i bought it , and it is very nice and easy to use .
As for parting off i dont have a problem with that either and dont have a rear tool post, it was a bit dodgy to start with cos i bought a old worn lathe, the saddle and bed have been sorted, and tight new chuck makes it a simple strait forward op
On another note im not very good with computers and was seeing what different buttons do ,one button was used by mistake ,the ignore member button i was trying to learn how to do cut and paste and hit the ignore member tab when i should have hit the quote tab , could you undo that for me please……………..b
