@jwmay, @WobblyHand
Credit to both of you for being willing and capable of doing delicate precision work. I have done some shallow DOC turning with a parting tool, and it is certainly possible as you've demonstrated. As WobblyHand knows, I have big machines and tend towards the hit it with a bigger hammer approach, sometimes slow and patient is the necessary way to get it done. If I plan on something being time consuming I can usually apporach it that way. But when I'm not expecting it, I get frustrated and that is when I start missing my numbers being careless.
