I am considering producing TBC bushings for pens. I recently ordered a dead center for turning between centers, and have noticed that there is either limited availability or limited selection of TBC bushings.
Assuming there is interest, the biggest factor is scheduling time on a friend's Haas CNC machining center. With that in mind, I'd want to prioritize which bushings to do first. My inclination would be to start with something like the Sierra, and grow the line moving forward. But maybe feedback says the Jr. Gent II is the most desired TBC bushing? This is where I could use your feedback. If you could, let me know your top choices for bushings you would want (maybe 3 or so).
Finally, I do not want to sell bushings for mandrel turning, so these would not have a center bore for the "A" mandrel. The design would provide maximum contact area for the centers.
Thanks!
