Less than one would think; holding a tack by the head while cutting
to make the pointy part... would work. Soft jaws in 3-jaw chuck is
best. Hard collets, not so grabby (but you can get soft collets to
custom-bore for this kind of task).


It's just not necessary! Turn two parts on one piece. You'll have the
..2"o.d. 'stub' to chuck on while turning the second stub.

Like the sign says, "THIMK!"
