Hi Colin.
I like John's videos, he's a no nonsense no faf guy. Bought a few items from him Inc byron pens. Not seen that video before but it's a good one and I'm going to give it a go. I do have transfer punches and a soft arbour. Both my lathes are Morse taper 1 and I think I might have some thing for my metals lathe ?
Pm me Colin and I will make you up a pack of blanks that I love.
Thanks too as I have found your post very informative and interesting
All the best mate
Lance
