@gertsafari next week i will show you how to do this with tough moly steel, and not end up with the CHASER in my face! noob

A good tool.) But solid materials so much harder to handle. Stiffness is small. And the device is not universal. The radius is difficult to regulate. Sorry for bad English. Translate with the help of Google Translate. I am russian.

@Keysforge it's called coolant..and you can use just plain water if you wish...the coolant acts as a lubricant/cutting oil but it's not necessary..the right tool will cut it anyway when the proper tool height/chuck rpm/feed rate is used...only thing you need to consider is tool wear...use carbide inserts for best results
Top machinist!! Think your videos are great!!
