Why not turn these from 4" steel bar stock?


I seriously considered doing that from steel or aluminum and it wouldn't
be a problem with just one or two--but I want to make a batch of 10-20
or more, and that would be too much work and a LOT of swarf. I'd want a
1 1/2" hub, for easy turning access at the headstock end of the work.

I'm going to have made or make myself aluminum castings.
Thanks,
