I was really dubious about these micro-lathes cutting harder metals. I found an M8 Stainless Steel hex head and decided to try and make another T nut to replace the one I got with the SL.
This tough little machine took it all in it's stride! The one supplied to me (it's obviously NOT a Unimat part, it's a shop made replacement), is on the right. The new stainless steel one is on the left.
I'm impressed by this little machine, and I am going to enjoy learning to use it.
