Hello
Going to build a lathe spindle very similar design has one used in the mini lathe, but a step up in size and with a tad bigger bore of 1'', will be using EN16T steel,
what I would like to know is. when it's all been turned down to size, will the shaft start to move about/start warping?
will the shaft need to have any hardening treatment, as I will be using en16t , i take it that the T stands for already pre tempered up to a certain degree and this should be fine for a lathe shaft
Thank
