Are we going to get to see it ? :palm: Isn't 1/2" - 40 a micrometer thread ? It seems very fine, what are you doing with that I wonder... I got some more cast iron discs yesterday. These are only 2" x 1/2" but its lovely close grained metal. I wish I could get a billet of the stuff... Well beggars can't be choosers. :thumbup: [/size][size=78%] [/size] |

I push my Fly Cutter quite hard at times so use inserts now so I don't have to sharpen so often! Still use HSS sometimes though. |

To ensure pictures taken with an iPad appear the correct way round the lens needs to be at the top left corner as you hold it in landscape mode. DAMHIKT. |
