We have had these centerless ground in the past, we moved, they closed, we need a new plan.
It is 6061, .437 +- .001 x 8 inches long with a full radius on one end, I would like to start with 1/2" extruded bar.
I just bought a box turning tool that does not have to feed all the way back off the whole 8", it's cutter is spring loaded to retract a bit.
I would like to use our ST10 and do them in house, I only need about 500 per year.
Can someone here tell me the proper way to set up this box turning tool.
I called the manufacturer several times, thinking I would buy a new one, there is never anyone there that can help me and they don't call back.
After several weeks of waiting to hear from them, I bought this one on ebay, I figured for under $100. I ain't out much if I can't make it work but am hoping it will.
