Small lathe Job
« on: June 08, 2014, 10:24:21 AM »
Hi All. Does anyone have a metal lathe and can do a small turning job for me OR can recommend a small engineering company, not to far from the shire.
Thanks, Allen

Hi Geoff. On the standoffs for my wheel spinners (center caps) the thread is too long so the spinners do not go on all the way, about 2 threads showing, see attached photo. I just need these couple of extra threads turned off, I could hacksaw them of but turning them off would be cleaner.
Thanks.
