AWGB Woodturning Forum

Lumsdep,
Do you have a piece of nylon to use?  I may have a piece about 31mm dia at the length you need, or even a piece of ptfe.
Let me know although I won’t be able to send anything until next week.

Yes it turns relatively freely and isn't so tight it is bulging, it is made that shape.

My plan is to get a piece of nylon or hdpe and turn it on my lathe. Probably make a test one out of wood first.

I think it is just a nylon guide possibly bulged at the centre by being squeezed by the retaining bolt?

Thanks that’s exactly what l was after.

Thank you very much for your help.
