so I have a set of parts we make for a customer, lathe parts, 2000ish at a time. one is from 2.5" alloy bar, one from 1.625" bar. both parts are 10mm long.
in theory, we could get both out of the same bar (one inside the other) but it would only leave enough room for a 1.5mm face grooving tool. but the groove would be wider for most of the depth.
has anyone been mad enough to try something like this?
