Needs to be round I'm afraid, only have a 3 jaw chuck!!!

I'm turning bosses to mount 108mm cosworth CV joints to a 50mm hollow driveshaft, and mount sprockets to the back of the same bosses.

hmmmm, interesting idea, will ave a look, there are a lot of ram repairers here as we are surrounded by quarries!

really just needs to be weldable steel so ram tube/piston rod will do the trick
