Thanks Dave! You're right about fine setting but I'm not sure I need that. I have one sketched out but....when????

For stuff up to 3/4 and 0-1steel...it's fine...for 99% of what I do.

Take look at the ball turning tool post at Metal Lathe Accessories. www.mlatoolbox.com Andy Lofquist has some fine castings.

He does! However, there are other projects I want to work on....I just needed the odd ball end turned. It did just fine!

It looks like it did fine, (nice work too). I have a similar but larger tool. I use a depth mic to set it and the accuracy has been very good. It doesn’t get used very often, but it is great to have when need.
