    Im bad at english machining words so i dont know exaclty what the top question means oof.

    the aluminum one spins nicely, the brass one is too heavy to get it going.

    I made the long side first cutting the top from a rod, then the second side i used that jig (the angle of the top side matches the top) and a collet stop to make the bottom side.

      Sorry, it’s a really bad play on words based on the pronunciation of collet being similar to the phrase ‘call it’.

      Very nice work. It’s a shame the brass top didn’t work out… perhaps a pull-cord?
