But is it plausible to expect decent accuracy/tolerances this way?

Thanks.

With experience you can have good accuracy. I visited a one man shop
that only machined plastics and as I remember he could hold tolerances
of + - .oo1.

Sharp tools, lots of clearance , and expect to make some parts that
are out of tolerance until you get things dialed in.
