Hi folks

Just a reminder, if we’re going to make Fixed Axle February something special, we need to start stepping up our fixed axle today…

I just found my Duncan Imperial.  
Only thing is, how do you get knots out? I apparently shoved scissors into the gap and sliced up the axle making it razor sharp. The axle now eats my strings alive.

^^ The ideal situation is to not get knots in the first place… But if you do get one - toothpicks are pointy enough to unpick knots, and soft enough not to do any damage to the axle.
