[QUOTE="red dirt shootist, post: 4138150, member: 52708"] Boring bar for sure, you don't say how precise you need the ID to be, but still boring bar. Nothing wrong with using a big drill to rough it out, but if you have a secondary operation, like threading the hole, boring bar. I take it you indicated the OD when you chucked it up? And I agree with everyone else, too much stress on the parting tool. I see you're using a 3 jaw, if you have a 4 jaw I'd use that. [/QUOTE]
