I am doing light gun barrel work, just need to reduce outside
diameter over a 4" area, and thread it over a 1" area.
Its an 8.5" long x 3/4" thick barrel. Sound like this baby will
do the trick?
Also whats a good website to but tooling for it?

You may be limited by the center hole in the stock 3" chuck; if so,
changing to a 4" chuck will solve the problem. The spindle claims to
have a 20 mm bore - it's reamable to 13/16" for a little more room.
There's a 13/16" reamer floating around, Chris at LMS provides adult
supervision to keep it moving.

LMS is a good source of tooling:



There's also a pretty comprehensive vendor list at mini-lathe.com; most
of the suppliers are happy to provide free catalogs,
