Hi - new member here
Mainly do model engineering. Live in the UK 1/2 between Bristo and Bath. Only have a small watch lathe, that can’t go this large and I’m struggling to find a local machinist.
I’m looking for a 63mm OD tube, 120mm in length. Wall thickness not so important, not under 1.6mm - 2-3mm preferred.
Material can be either mild steel or aluminium, steel preferred.
diamond knurling.
no knurling for the fist 30mm, then either a 30mm band or knurling all the way to the end.
Tolerance can be .5mm, prefer over rather than under.
Does not need to be immaculate.
This is the sort of thing I’m aiming for, ignore the cap part, that’s a separate component. Only Loki g for a tube to insert.
Thanks in advance.
