The Last Rolo - Timelapse - Solid Brass - 4K / UHD - Easy beginner lathe ideas - Best Lathe Plans

I decided to machine a Rolo out of solid brass. This makes a great present, ornament or paperweight.
This is a great starter project for a beginner on a lathe. The processes are all easy, and the final dimensions do not need to be to a high level of accuracy. +/-0.5mm will still give you a very nice result.
This is a timelapse video showing how I did it and the result.

As people have pointed out in my other early videos, wearing gloves or jewellery whilst operating machinery is a very bad idea!! Don't follow my mistakes!
