For those of us lucky enough to escape our "Better Halves' COVID Honey-Do Projects" by taking refuge in garages having Metal Lathes and some Steel Stock on hand to turn and make things with... THIS Video covers 1.5 Hours of AWESOME insights into the Machining Characteristics of various kinds and qualities of Steels.

It provides intimate details and facts about How to Turn Steel Round Stock at the proper RPM and Feed Rates using an assortment of Positive and Negative Cutting Inserts to achieve the Best Results in surprising ways. Owning the Monster Lathe being used in this demonstration would be nice... but NOT entirely necessary; given how many interesting Machining Secrets actually get revealed here.

This will be a Very Pleasant Mechanical Diversion all of us can appreciate and learn so much from:
