Myford ml1

Made that tool post so I could make a proper tool post. Ballsed up and got the collet I machined stuck insde the post. Relegated it to the scrap bin.

Will make a new one soon as I sorted the pulley out. That's next.

If that's a carbide tipped tool you'll have better results with a HSS tool. The top slide on the later models swivels I don't know if the ML 1 does. also you should support the workpiece with the tail stock considering the long over hang

Ok. Yes they are carbride bits. They don't cut very clean.
