Nice video- Another option to consider (that I prefer) is to leave the compound turned for normal exterior threading.....& just invert the interior tool bit- Keeps everything the same, whether you're cutting interior/exterior threads.
Nice job Lee! I got a tad nervous when you were making the final cuts of the OD. Those cap screw holes damn near broke through. Too bad you didn't have a smaller pilot mill when you bored them out. Wakodahatchee Chris
I didn’t take the time to fully dial in the work piece and it was 10-15 thou off at each end. I was hoping no one would notice. 😜 Thanks for stopping by.
Good morning, Lee. That’s a good approach to working long, larger diameter stock.
Pretty cool, seeing the truck run backwards with your plate on it. Pure genius.

I like that feed reversal technique at 14:12
Good job there Lee. That is something I have thought about making. Thanks for the video keep on keeping on.
G'day Lee. Excellent job from start to finish.
Great Job

Great job, where did ya get the download for the Machinist Applets.
Mr. Lee, what is going on with the radial and axial runout at 24:30? There seems to be more than incomplete adjustment of the 4-jaws....

@@MrPragmaticLee Thanks for the reply, The MT side of the chuck seems to be dancing as well... Is it a cheap MT adapter causing excess runout?
no register ? on back plate for chuck, Holding only with 4 screws
Enjoying your work Lee! Would a link to the "Machinist App" be possible?
just in time
Runout looks really quite bad, sure can't use it that way!
