How hard is it to do?
I'm supposing I already have a cross slide adapter that can present the work piece to the chuck holding the cutting tool. Which I don't ;D
My first guess would be that I should just stick with drilling multiple holes with the lathe and finish by hand if I just have to make them square. Or stop with the series of holes.
If I take small cuts would the lathe handle an end mill tool? Or should I only load the chuck in the axis of rotation and not across it?
Lots of questions,

Oh---how about a picture so you can see what I'm getting on about.
