Ok I'm rasing the white flag here.. I've tried, and tried, and cannot get the angles right on an inside boring bit.. I don't have a boring bar, and I'm thinking of making one later, anyways, can someone step me through grinding a nice inside boring bit,with some pictures?
What I've been trying to copy is a regular finishing bit but at a 90 degree angle, and I'm failing miserably, and wasted a nice 5" long bit trying.. also is there a depth limit where I should just use a boring bar? still super new to working with the lathe, and boring things has me pulling my hair out. Thanks folks!
