I'm after an off cut off phosphor bronze about 1 1/2" diameter by about 1 1/2" long to make a new bush to go in the tail stock of my lathe, for some reason the previous owner thought it would be a good idea to make a steel one.

Anyone? I'm willing to pay a reasonable price for an off cut as I know it's not cheap, but I really don't want to spend £30 - £40 on a bar, when I only need to make one bush.

Did you get this sorted?

I have a piece 70mm OD, 24mm ID and 37mm long.

Not quite big enough for what I need.

Still looking for an off cut, could be interested but I'll need to check the ID.

I always get my metal off ebay. Lol

Probably pay a bit over the odds, but its convenient. They'll usually supply you with whatever size you want.
