I have just chanced upon this video **LINK** I would not have the patience!

Nice work though

Nice job. Only runs on air though.

0.59 and 1.29 are the most interesting parts, showing how smooth intermittent cuts can be achieved IMO

 

and please note how a good tailstock centre is required

The tailstock unit is almost twice the size of the workpiece

Nice work, using traditional tools.

Ady1 makes an excellent point about using a good Tailstock Centre.

It's also interesting to see the job held in a very ordinary-looking three jaw chuck … Obviously all turned at one chucking.

Looks like the 3 jaw is only holding a centre as there’s definitely a dog driving the workpiece.

Shows how sharp tools are a must !

My error, Wallace

That makes much more sense !!

… The headstock centre would have been trued-up in the 3-Jaw.
