I am a knife maker and make pattern welded steel/damascus. I recently picked up a mini lathe and am trying to make stainless damascus rings. I am having trouble boring the ring hole out. I have no experiance with a lathe but have had no problem turning the steel down to size but the harbor freight boring bar is just not cutting. Any and all help with technique, setup, speed and better boring bar suggestions are much appreciated.
Thanks
John
