Metal Spinning Tooling

Georg Waldhof

>I'm searching for a source for various metal spinning tools and supplies. Specifically, I am looking for a live center for the tailstock with the appropriate "pad" and the bar for supporting to tools.

Also, where can one find a supply of sheet metal for spinning purposes - I'm particularly interested in platinum, copper, brass, and such.

Does anyone besides Sorby sell metal spinning tools?

thanks

>Hello Georg,

I would try doing a Google search on Dave Hout. He has done many demos on metal spinning. I couldn't find a web site for Dave, but if you are an AAW member, he is listed in the 2004 resource guide. If you are not a member, just drop me an email and I will pass his email address along to you.

I am sure he can give some good info on metal spinning and where to get the tools you need.

>George,

There was an active metal spinners group on Yahoo some months ago. I don't know if they're still active, but I've included the link that I used to use. They were a wealth of good info.

Good luck

Doug
