Nice work. Were you doing weld buildup on your good lathe? I thought that was a no no. But still looking good.

Ok i thought that was a no no. When you say not steel
Does that mean it is OK for aluminium? I have seen shops do weld buildup on a lathe, but those were dedicated machines, just for that purpose. Something about welding current, magnetizes, or damages the gears in the head. So your adapter flange is a cutoff of an old crankshaft? That is a good idea. |

Man I forgot how handy a 4 jaw can be. Been along time since I have used one. Nicely done. I get lazy and throw my crank adapters on a cnc mill.
