Machining Aluminum Bronze
I've done some machining of it. Specific alloy unknown. A metal
warehouse gave me a chunk of it, saying they THOUGHT is was some regular
(Cu/Sn) bronze. What I had doesn't machine too badly, about like other
bronzes, a bit 'grabby', but not awful. Just don't try to solder this
stuff! BAD news there! :-(

I want to machine some aluminum bronze for some bushings but have never
tried to turn it on a lathe. Is it tough and tricks or tips ?
