I have been tossing around the idea of getting a mini lathe to help in the construction of my router. After looking at what it would cost to have ball-screws turned down, and collets made, I think it justifies buying the tools and doing the job myself.
Does a 7 X 12 from homier or Cummins have the ability to turn down rolled ball screws?? I know people turn down drill rod, but I don’t know how that compares to the hardness of ball screws.
Anyone have any experience with this?
