Anyone with a lathe in Herts?
Hadders - 15/3/09 at 06:57 PM

Does anyone have a lathe or can recommend a company who could do a small job for me in exchange for a few beer tokens?

I have a block of ali which needs a whole turning in the centre to accept a bearing. Shouldn't take more than 10 minutes.

I'm in St Albans, but i'm happy to travel in Herts / North London.

TIA

You need a mill not a lathe??

If it's a circular hole a lathe would be favorite

I'm planning on using someone off Ebay for my machinework on the basis they're seriously cheap!!
