I have a Nova comet 2 and i can't fault it....also this lathe comes with a nova chuck.

I've seen a it of Formica used on the rim into a small groove, I've yet to try it myself...

A CBN wheel

Mostly carbide for Pewter and mainly the detail tool due to the small non catchy tip, for tiny details a 10 mm skew

Many thanks Paul 👍

Ok, one last question, sorry for sounding like a bit of a donut but i just need to know if this 'bar size' is 16mm ... that's the only way my numerical dyslexic brain can figure out if it's the right one.... I'm currently residing in Europe and most of these UK companies are either out of stock...

These look good, thanks ...

Well I microwaved it until steamed no more 😁

Cheers Doug, I need to find more of this, it came to us as firewood and was a shot in the dark....

Also did spend many years in the US👍

Ha ha, many thanks for all the info Greg, I'll take it on board 🤘🤘

Earlier shots... Of the log you mean? 😆

Practicing.... I wanted something both elegant and chunky

Thanks Doug
