Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Andy Bonwick [QUOTE] [QUOTE] Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, muddy cat [QUOTE] There has been a slight tooling failure[1] in the WUN workshop, and I have decided on a minor upgrade to make volume production easier. Oh, a new turret lathe?[/QUOTE] Heh. No, a minor upgrade: [URL]http://www.chronos.ltd.uk/acatalog/info_SD.TT__.html[/URL][/QUOTE] Why don't you just ask me and I'll give you a 1/2" square shank tipped tool and a couple of boxes of tips.[/QUOTE] Thanks Andy, I'm pretty much OK for turning tools, TBH. It's the built-in follower on this one that looks funky. I need to turn a 2mm diameter and it's a tad fiddly doing it without. I'm hoping this speeds the process up.
