Hi Ben,

Not a problem ! Wife and I are out all day tomorrow but I'll take some photographs Thursday when I can get back into the workshop. In fact I have to part off another chunk of inch silver steel to make the second pair of support bolts for my electrically driven step.

Hello Ben, Guys,

As promised I took some photographs of the rear mounted parting off tool post whilst parting off some 25 mm silver steel bar. There are pictures of the tip of the parting off blade and the swarf produced. This was parted by hand as can be seen from the rings on the face of the workpiece still in the chuck.

Sorry I forgot to take pictures of the bearing support bolts that I was making. If I remember I'll do that on Saturday.
