    Great job mate! I love the part you made on the lathe and I personally think hot bluing was the right choice! ✌🏻

      Thanks for watching Dr Hut. I only just got the lathe and that was my first piece.
      Appreciate your opinion on the thumb screw. I wasn't sure at first but it's grown on me 😁
