Question for you guys. I'm getting ready to cut my first chamber, and wanted to get your guys input.
Do you use a normal twist drill bit to clear out about half of the desired size of the chamber, use a small boring bar to clean it up and get about 90% to size, and finish it off with a reamer, or do you just have at with the reamer from the get go?
If it's of value, I'm doing this in a 12x36 bench lathe, and I know it's not nearly as rigid as some of your multi ton CNC machines.
