Multi-sleeve Rolling Pin
One of the more interesting articles I have written, this rolling pin features a central hex shaft that allows one pin to use multiple sleeves. So there can be a flat one for rolling out dough, and sleeves with different grooves to cut noodles from pasta.
The sleeves were formed using a Bird’s Mouth Bit then the outsides rounded over. While the lathe can be used to round the sleeves and cut the grooves, not everyone has a lathe, so I built a milling box that uses a hand router in place of the lathe.
