    Yep, got me a Taig micro lathe and a Warco mini lathe (also a Siege SX1LP milling machine).

    What do you build on yours???

    Hi,

    Can either of you skim 1 or so mm of an ID for me?

    Cheers

    I suspect that would-be easier with a mill.

    Hi,

    The material is Nylon PA2200.

    The actual part is a tool body holder so precision not super critical.
