John Sure thing guy. Add another 2 .75 inches to the top and you get an idea of the cylinder as well. Just began cutting cast iron on the lathe and all is going well. It really cuts quite differently from the steel I've always cut and dear god is it ever messy stuff. With luck, I'll fit the cylinder core to the base tomorrow. |

Ive heard so many times from people selling machinery "Its never ran cast iron", I enjoy machining it if it is consistent. That is Durabar you're using for the cylinder correct? It is looking great. |
