Hi
Thanks for the comments
It will just fit on my Colchester 2000 with the gap removed when bolted on a faceplate but even with the cross slide right back, the compound angled back and extended and using the back of the tool post I cannot get the tool to bear enough. Especially as I need to crown the outside rim so a belt stays on. Also there is a fair bit of metal to remove.
The engineering places I have tried have these fancy computer controlled machines which do not take very big stuff.
They look at me with a blank face when I ask them if they have a big centre lathe.
