    So you did land up getting one....
    I blew my entire bonus one year on one of the combination lathe-mills from Addendorf. cost of attachments, tools, etc just continues....
    But, I have been able to make some bits and pieces.

    Jip I have the 6133Q from Adendorfs, bought second hand for R11k about 18 months ago. Having too much fun on it, made a muzzle brake for the 6.5 Creed this weekend.

    I'm also busy with a vertical slide attachment for my cross-slide, so that I can mill on the lathe.

    Hey LSS, I have some silver steel rods if you want to play a bit, otherwise you can get it at metal centre in Selby, not too expensive, but you have to get 1m lengths

    G'Day Fella's,

    Epsilon, as a Fitter Machinist my self, well done, thats most impressive.

    Further to Powder coating bullets, here is a link to a bloke that explains it as briefly as possible.

    This is basically how I do it, these days, and I'm very happy with the outcome.
    FYI, as in the above video, the pre-heating of the cast bullets for 1 to 2 minutes (bullets size dependent), I believe helps with the initial coating process.

    FYI, here is a link to a post I made on the Nosler forum, about powder coating bullets;
    https://forum.nosler.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=36536

    Hope that helps

    Doh!
