Mini lathes - possible to turn stainless?

[HankMcSpank]

If you're using 10mm tooling I have a "gret handful" of brazed carbide tooling (new) you can have as I never use it.

Wow, what a kind offfer, I'm starting from zip .....I'd like to take you up on that if the lathe turns out to take 10mm tools - thanks! (these will no doubt weigh a little bit...obviously I'll pay the postage!)

I'll let you know later!

You'll get a flavour for why I need a lathe from this set of photos, I've just completed this -





(those lines are on the lower surface - top is nice & smooth. That centre circle looks a little odd as I haven't come all the way through to the top surface with it . - also those little holes are meant to be different - there are two sizes of DIY pickups I need to mount, both of which have different pole spacings)


The cheapest/quickest traversing pickup winder I can dream up....




"What I learnt today" - biggish circular stuff is painful to do on a mill and doesn't look so neat after either!

(& I dare say not that 'true' either!)
