Hi Chuck,
The bore is .299 and the flywheel is .900.

I guess the smallest part I have made was the crosshead assembly for the half scale version of Jerry Howells Miser. At the time seemed more like trying to machine aluminum foil !! Great thread though and nice to see all this very small work done so beautifully!!

About 12 years ago our shop made tiny parts and a 5 gallon bucket around 1/3 full had 70,000 parts in it worth $100,000.

If I was the boss we would not run parts like that Run your wire some place else.

That is when you get a screw machine. We did quantities like that all the time for Amp Electronic Connectors. Don't know what the cost was though.
 
Wow, some great very small stuff in this thread.

Here is the smallest part that I've made so far.
