Hey all,
Was working on a pin change recently and I had to support the butt on two ends with delrin collets that came with the lathe.
The outcome of the pin change turned out satisfying.
But,
both ends where the collets were "grabbing" onto made deep circular marks around the cue. At the end of the day, I had to touch up on the marks to handover the cue back to the customer.
What could be the possible reason? Could it be because of the finishing that was used? Or probably the collets were not made of Delrin at all?
Or, if this is "normal", does it mean touching up the cue butt (polishing etc) is a necessary process after every job (such as pin change)?
Thanks for reading and looking forward to hear from any of you! =)
