Need to reduce some 5/8" 6061 to .618 for a length of 2" - 100 pieces. My chuck has about .004-.005 runout but I also have an ER collet chuck I can use
How would you do this?
If you can set your ER collet chuck to run true that would probably be a good option. Maybe mount it in a 4 jaw if you have one, otherwise shim it as needed.
I'd used the collet chuck but the stock isn't perfect. I'd check each part out by the end with an indicator and bump it true if needed before turning. I have an indicator I dovetailed to fit my qctp.
