diemai Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 @ hazmail Thanks a lot about your hints , but being professionally involved into precision metal grinding , I am aware about all of such issues , but its very kind of you , certainly other folks would also benefit from your remarks ! But I don't think , that I could go much larger in diameter than the 5" , maybe 6" , since there is not much more clearance between center of my lathe's motors chuck and the bedding of it . Apart from the center point for fixing wood dowels for turning I frequently put rotary wire brushes , polishing wheels and a velcro sanding disc holder into that chuck , the latter is exactly 125 mm in diameter , and there is not much space left at the bottom:nono: ! But I guess , this size woold be fine for most of my lures , anyway . thanks again , Dieter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
