I had two aluminum blanks lying around so I chucked them up, faced and turned them.
This represents my true entry into the rabbit hole!

They may become two rollers for a 2x72” belt grinder.

Hello, my name is Tom and I’m a hobby machinist. I’m not an addict because I can quit any time I want to. I’ve done it hundreds of times.

My problem is that watching chips fly and metal mysteriously become skinnier is like staring at a campfire. No reason to do it, it’s just mesmerizing and somehow satisfying. Have I mentioned that I’m not addicted to it?

Welcome to the addic hobby, David. Good job on the cylinder.

Dial indicators and Micrometers are “gateway” tools..... I’m a full on addict, and I own that! I have walked the 12 step recovery pathway and I have stumbled. But I am strong, and even though I stumble, I know that I am amongst others who fight along side me....... I won’t suffer in silence, but I simply don’t want to live in a world without metrology.
