12:44 AM rifraf: gonna make some plugs for the ends after carefully getting the ID concentric
12:45 AM rifraf: and support with live center, a travelling center never made alot of sence, and hard to do in a fixed 3 point center when you wanna machine down the whole od
12:47 AM rifraf: or do i machine up a large cone to enlarge live center?
12:50 AM rifraf: got a couple of MT2 spindles, problem though, drawbar thread is 3/8", not 10mm like my metric collect holder, so need to machine a new drawtube :/
12:52 AM rifraf: and that wastes 0.5mm that was kinda precious, might not be able to test with 1/4" stock
01:05 AM rifraf: hrm, tempted to rub a 3/8" die over this M10 drawtube thread and see if it still can be go for experiment
01:07 AM rifraf: yep gonna try after i machine down the outside thread diameter a bit
01:08 AM rifraf: actually should cut a thread, less chance of breaking it

01:06 PM aandrew: "frache menta" is literally "rubbing mint" and is the idiom for not doing anything particular / wasting time / bored
