Very nice John! It already has a nice patina that makes it look like its been around as long as your lathe. ![Thumbsup Thumbsup](http://www.metalworkingfun.com/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

Hi
Lads Made a start on the mill feed screw again I centerd the stock 1 inch stainless It had a run out of 15 thou in the middle (slight bend) I set up my new steady (the steady was trailing the tool) set up a 20 thou cut (10 ether side) It took about half a hour to complete the cut at a nice slow speed The bar is now straight (or the clock is broken) ![]() ![]() The diamiter is within 1 thou over 24 inches Now the pictures ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() John |
