      Have had a wee think ,I had a look at the price of stainless steel and i'd rather someone who can make good use of it rather than me wasting it ,i wonder if anyone was up for a bit of a barter with the stainless steel rod .

      I'm just starting out in this turning lark and i think this material is a bit too specialised for my mediocre skill level.

      Biggest bar is 70mm and 200mm long

      there's a bar at 50mmx430mm

      And a a stepped turned shaft 55mm at the widest down to 35mm by 530mm long

      Things i'd consider bartering

      i need a live center mt2

      CNMG 432 insert holder up to 20mm

      Steady rest

      Quick change tool post and tool holders

      A nice dial gauge with mag mount tripod (not sure what you call them)

      Micrometer

      Tailstock chuck

      Some nice brass or copper .

      As you can see i truly am just starting out ,and these suggestions are just an idea …. and you folks can tell me to take a run and jump for asking in the first place . If you don't ask you don't get …..lol

          Sean – why not join a local ME club – often these have jumble sales – also you will probably be able to barter more readily tho I suspect many who have sources of offcuts do not pay the prices charged at exhibitions etc where the cost of attendance etc must make up a major part of the price asked.

            I think Sean lives near me. I am in Moray. We don’t have a model engineer club that I know of.
