Interesting piece. Nice lines (or curves actually). That part would be challenging to turn on a manual lathe. It is not an issue with precision so much as part shape. Generally speaking, manual machines work best with straight line motion, I'd use a CNC for that shape. The lathe in the picture appears to be a manual lathe, so my hat is off to you.
Alarion! Hello! You haven't been posting in a while. I noticed, and I'm glad to see you back again.
Yep. New job, lot of it. Really little spare time, dedicated to forging, learning how to grind and riding my spanking new bike (after twenty years finally decided to learn how to ride and bought one, but that's a long story)
