I'll add my ignorant question
I have one of the Harbor Freight 7 x 10 lathes. I have a bicycle seat post that I want to reduce the diameter by 0.025". The spindle head is to small to accept the post, the bed is to short to use the tail stock. Any clever ideas how I could use this lathe to do the job. The post is aluminum. I took it to a machine shop, he laughed and said, "I've already spent more time on this than the part is worth." Mikek |
