I have another question on emachineshop use. When you make press fits on the lathe do you use a reamer or just use normal lathe tooling. On your site your not real clear on that. Thanks alot for all your help btw.

Press fits are made by properly tolerancing your design. Depending on many factors we may or may not ream but there is usually no need to be concerned about how a tolerance is met as long as it is met.

Download CAD Software

"I've never used any CAD software before, but I downloaded and installed the software. 15 minutes later, the custom metal piece I needed for a necklace pendant. The software's price appraisal was near instant, and it gave me tips which helped me reduce the price by 100%. It's a great program!"
