Only need this machine to cut slugs off bar stock to use in my lathe. It is a very small lathe and the chuck throat is only 20mm.

So anything bigger than that I have to cut to roughly the correct length before starting the job. very seldom anything bigger than 100mm.

Tubing, angle iron d cutting at angles is left to my abrasion wheel cut off machine. also made it myself and have served me for about 30 years and the only thing I will change is to fit a proper vice to it. Will post a pic..

Also building a ring roller to do 60mm pipe for an excosceletal (how ever you spell that ??)car I am building, but caught in a bit of chicken egg situation as I need one machine to build the other
