    I really wish David would upload again, I hope he is in good health. Maybe a space rocket company finally got ahold of him and stuffed him in a back room with a Craven lathe and nothing but Nimonic alloy then covered the door with a massive nda and gave him unlimited John Smiths beer and thats why we dont get videos anymore. just a theory

    Greetings from the U.S, this is incredible work and this is coming for a business owner cutting only exotic material. what is the pad made off @ 1:10? what's your favorite grade for 718 and long does it last on this type of trepanning? Thx

    Ahhhh. Three years without a video. You're killing us Dave, killing us. Once in a while I go drinking with a guy who used to live in Wetherby, but has now moved to the colonies (as he calls it). His accent is similar to yours but he is a prison guard, not a machinist. It's lots of fun but there's no trepanning talk. The only drilling he sees at work happens in the showers. Ken

    Inconel 718 is no wear near that difficult to machine with the tight tools and right grade of carbide. Try machining Rene 41 it has a machinability Of maybe 15-20 !

    Hope your DSG is still giving good service. I've had my DSG type 17 for four years or so now, it replaced a Colchester Triumph as my 'big' lathe. There really is no comparison between the two machines and not just in terms of centre height. The DSG is just a pleasure to use.
