What joy it must be to have and be able to use the full capacity of a lathe like that!
How long of an area did you turn, and how straight did it come out? I assume a fairly low cutting speed to achieve some tool life with the HSS tool, so how long was the part on the machine? Do you have to mill long keyways in the shaft too?
