[Scott]

I use a Chattanooga 44. Do you have pictures of the mini version?

Thanks

Despite that, I was able to find and almost finish restoring a miniature version of what looks like a Chatanooga 44 cane mill. I’m told it could have been a salesman’s demo model. It has a hand crank and works fairly well, but is missing the knife. I had to build two new bottom rollers and shafts, but I’m not sure if the best way to make a knife. Any suggestions?
