Milling Alcoa super singles

Used my high dollar lathe (my truck in reverse at 900rpm) custom cutting bits (harbor freight wood chisels) and a very complex tooling guide (a concrete block, angle iron, and vice grips) to achieve a diameter of 22.08” as determined by the engineer (me and my iphone calculator with middle school math skills) confirmed measurements with precision instruments (a string and a tape measure). Satire description aside, i doubted this method but the old heads swore by it.
