What is the largest diameter you can spin?
Our largest diameter to spin on our lathes is 850 mm or 33 1/2 inches; this also depends on the depth of the job.
Do you offer bespoke or custom-made products?
Yes, this is something we can offer. Our aim is to take your initial idea or design and turn it into a handmade bespoke and unique product.
What is tooling and what is it used for?
Tooling is an essential part of the metal spinning process. It is a unique mould that we use to form metal discs onto, allowing us to achieve various shapes and sizes in our work. A hardened spinning chuck can produce as little or as many quantities as you require.
