    And some of use are old farts who learned in a whole different school. Ihad to start out by making my own go and no go's to spec and a store bought ANYTHING was a real treat. Some of that lingers so I only buy what it is impractical for me to make. The gunsmith I worked with when I was young did his chambers complete on the lathe with a boring bar, I shudder to think of trying this.

    That must have been way back when you had to pedal the lathe.
