Black bar contains a lot less stress than bright drawn but would require machining before it's welded.
I don't think I even suggested machining before welding but anyway - I think you did John. Good grief Jason - if I did it was for black bar. Which could be welded without but personally I wouldn't. John - |

![]() 212 forum posts 16 photos | Dave, A little late in the day but you may find it interesting. I have a UW1 and it would be possible to take a Myford tailsotck (later type ) and graft that onto a cast iron block. I have a picture somewhere. Even easier would be to find a tailstock raising block for a UW1 and graft to that. Matt |
