Can you turn the old steel drums from '36 1 1/2 ton? I am sure everybody that has one knows what happens to them when braking for so many years,they have that "lip" on them. What can be done if anything? Thank you again, Dan

Now we have nice carbide tool bit so we probably get a nicer cut. You can't take out as much per pass as you can with the iron drums, and definately use the slowest feed on the machine, hope that helps. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2012 Posts: 402 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2012 Posts: 402 | Thank you 3B!
