Near enough to understand anyway. Just for the record, we call it a "Drehbank", or lathe in English.

Use stainless steel and your problems will be gone forever. You can maybe make them by yourself on what we call a "draaibank" ( I really don't know the English or German word). Stainless steel lasts forever.
