Project Hand Wheel - Machining Over Size Work On The Mini Lathe

G'day everyone. Today I will be machining a replacement handwheel for my mini lathe's tailstock. I have been meaning to get around to doing it ever since I moved into my workshop. The stock plastic one that it comes with had broken twice, though it was not the fault of the lathe.

I bought this piece of 100mm x 50mm round piece of aluminium stock to machine into a replacement using my Sieg c3 7x14 mini lathe. The maximum diameter that can physically fit into the work area of the lathe is about 130mm diameter; this piece is smaller however it will not be able to be chucked, so I will need to resort to turning between centers.

I will also resort to using my custom ground HSS tools that I have ground from High Speed Steel drill shanks, found in a previous video, which can be found here - https://youtu.be/yjGbe18IjPs
