G'day How did you go about getting the lathe tool cut. I'm looking at turning my own wheels in N scale. Thanks Luke free feel to email me on bendigonscale@live.com.au
Hi.
That makes two people then as I would love to have a tool to do the same in 2mm Scale and Z Scale. Would you consider producing some for some commisions?
