No no, I have both 4140 and 1018. Will bring the chunk of 1018. Also the 4140 is annealed so it's really not to bad to cut / machine. Anyways though, we are talking about mild steel (1018). I was also just re-reading the thread. I made a Type and said 1080. I meant to say 1018 ... standard...

Yes that is correct. I don't mind shipping up to Edmonton. Let me know if you are interested. Cheers!

Hey John, I got your e-mail and i'll touch base with you today. I think i'm going to try and make a smaller ER32 Collet chuck which uses an M40 1.5 pitch thread. I have the collet nut so I just need to cut the threads on the chuck itself. You think I can give this a shot on Friday? I'll...

Hi Jyman, I have a fairly big selection of end mills. I'm in Coventry Hills (NE). Price varies on what you are looking for and how many you want. Probably around $2.50 or $3 a piece for the smaller ones and price goes up from there. They are all quality brands. I may be able to meet up...

The thread is M50 x 1.5 Pitch. It's for an ER40 Collet Nut. I'm off work this week. How about I come over Friday morning?

Okay great! My little lathe is really struggling with this 5" diameter 4140 :P. It will probably take me a while to turn it down to size. I'm working on a backplate for a 3 jaw chuck right now. Anyways, I would be happy to bring some stock to do some metric thread tests. When do you have...

Forgot, I also have a 8" Bison 3 jaw chuck for sale. 2 piece jaws.
