Lathing

[bluemaxroe 117]

Hi all, 

i am hoping that someone can help me.

for a project I am doing I was going to get Graham Holmes to make some parts for me.    Unfortunately as some may know he can no longer use his machines.   

Does anyone who owns a lathe willing to help me, or know someone who is ?

 

thanks for any help.

Give John at  john@jtechdesign.co.uk an email with your requirements, he has done a couple of "one off's" for me.  His work excellent and he is an Astronomer so talks the talk so to speak.

Unfortunately I don't possess a Lathe but you could try  http://www.model-engineer.co.uk/ as they are a helpful bunch a lot like those on this forum.

We have quite a few machinists on here that are also members of the above and tgere is probably someone close by that you could discuss your requirements with face to face.

If you are in letchworth, try Alan at http://www.aztecprecisionengineering.com/ next to pixmore cafe

Thanks, Racey, I will.

Are you in Letchworth then? or just know it well?

Pedant hat on, for future reference, the correct term for operating a lathe is "TURNING".

Thank you, Mr Drew, correction appreciated.
