truing round stock
I've got some round mild steel that is the perfect diameter for an
item I want to make. (0.187in dia) I have an 5 inch length that is a bit out of round. Suspending one in in my mill with it's drill chuck, the other end moves 0.028in when I turn in slowly. I know I can get a larger diameter piece and turn it down but I was curious if there was a way to true this existing piece. Its just some that I bought at Lowes so, would annealling it help? thanks, Q |
