I just bought a Warco 240 from JonE (not picked it up yet due to the weather) but need to buy some tooling as well as a MT2 drill chuck and live centre.
The choice seems to be infinite but as I'm a total novice don't know where to start.
For tooling should I go for HSS tools or ones with a carbide insert for example?
A problem I think I would have with HSS tooling would be regrinding as I've got no experience of that.
For the drill chuck and live centre I don't need super accuracy but also don't want to end up with junk?
I wont be doing a lot of work, just making up various parts/tools to help with my car restoration projects etc.
Last of all, does anyone have any idea where I can get offcuts in Fife to play around with?
