Metal Lathe

The metal lathe was a lot of fun!

First I loaded my piece into the metal lathe.

Then I faced the end

Then I resurfaced the side as far as I could safely without making contact with the chuck.

I flipped the piece around and milled the other end.

Then I went on to make some designs.

I polished it with a scotch bright scour pad

I created a dimple for the centre hole.

And then drilled my hole.
