Much ado mate if it fits your needs congratulations there sure is variation in everything we touch re mandrels etc to get to the situation you have is novel. I ream on the lathe for accuracy never did trust freehand reaming. Like the bushing box.Bit like going to the dentist turning pens the space needed for the tools, the blanks, kits, bushes etc whatever happened to the old Slimline approach. I have been reading so much about the multitudenal kits now on the market, the price of bushings, the various drills and sizes recommended quite an industry right enough. All the best mate.
