[QUOTE="spladi, post: 2378698, member: 120458"] I think getting your lathe is a good first step, then decide what else you need as you learn the process's step by step. Machine work , even simple threading and chambering requires a good bit of understanding if you want to turn out good work. Be careful not to get wrapped up in the lathe via loose cloths etc., run at low RPM'S until you get familiar as they are powerful ! ! Practice on any solid bar at first. Find someone who knows machine work to help you. [/QUOTE]
