We do too. The problem is we don’t have machines that can add material.

What size throw on ur lathes at work?
[–] Thyhorrorcosmic103 [S] ago
The vertical lathe is 6x6 foot. We have a large horizontal that does 3’ diameter 10 long. And several smaller horizontals.

Were these supposed to be gears?
[–] Thyhorrorcosmic103 [S] 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
No. They are flanges and nozzles.

I wonder if they would be flanges.
Excellent. Good job, dudes.

There isn't enough material to machine the parts out of these pieces. Essentially they are useless to us.

It’s aluminum and its roughcut already.
