Thread: Tutorial: Making solid washers.

Nice. Thanks. I can't wait until I can save up money to buy a mini-metal lathe. It's one of the top things on my "list".

I just bought a Dremel drill press "workstation" - I wonder if that could be used as a lathe? It'll rotate to hold the Dremel at 90 degrees; could tack up a frame and collet for holding the stock to face the Dremel's cutting bit...

Can't wait too Chris since you've been talking and wanting to make some for a very long time. I'm tired of letting my beard grow...

I know, I know. I'll get there sooner or later, Max.

I'd like ONE OF THESE but unless one of you is feeling really generous and wants to buy me one, I think I'll have to either save up for the next decade or be happy with some alternative.

Thanks for the tutorial! The more we share our methods and ideas the better we all shall be.

ChrisL... when you get one of those I will move in next door!
