If there's enough interest in doing this on a conventional lathe, I'll go through all the steps. If not I'd rather not go through all the typing and picture taking. First off, what you need is about $1100.00 in an air over coolant pump and a gun drill. This is NOT like an Eldorado or other, but will result in very accurate drilling. Also what you need is a good lathe with approx. 2 - 3000 rpm with a feed rate of
.0005'' or less. The tougher and or harder the material the lower the feed rate should be. Response?
