Well, this wasn't a CNC lathe, it was manual, with power feed, etc... I had the pulley butted up against the chuck, and was turning the outside diameter with a slow feed rate (finishing pass) and I let the tool go just a hair too far, and it hit the chuck, and the chuck broke the carbide tip right off... :-[ I was so embarrassed, lol. Luckily, the instructors were cool about it, and just gave me another tip. :D

If youve got a cab you should make yourself some stainless or ally joys!

This was part of my reasoning in taking this lab. It's not required for my major, but now that I've taken it, I can take a skill test at the school and get access to the machine shop there whenever I need it. :D As long as I supply my own material, I can do whatever I like... hehe.
