Hi Andy,

I guess that rules out a trip to Oz? Well, it's not been on my must-do
list. But if I can't have it, suddenly I want it!

Hi John,
It would probably cause a bit of a furore at airport security, too.
Anyway, I've got a Warco-badged Wiess lathe, which according to the Warco specs has a 0.75" spindle bore. Out of curiosity, I have just measured it - 20.8mm, which is 13/16" plus a whisker.
Back now to making a crude leadscrew reverse for it. I've been taking a break from hand-hacksawing cuts of about 300mm total length in 12mm steel plate, to make a swinging arm to bring an extra gearwheel into play when needed. Only another 30mm to go, now. I know what I shall be giving myself for my 60th later this month!

You can open it up to 13/16". In the "links" section of the 7x10

group

there's something for "Al's Reamer", since it was Varmint Al who
started the whole thing. There are a couple of reamers circulating
around from user to user. Chris (of LMS fame) provides adult
supervision to keep things moving.
