I'm looking for a reasonable (eg en9 or en24 or so, something better
than mild steel - it's for a collet chuck) steel blank, 80 mm diameter
and 40 mm long.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

These people keep some steel blanks:
http://www.hpcgears.com/

You're probably best calling them and asking for a catalogue. It's much
more detailed than their website.

Best wishes,

Chris

Would 95mm dia Black EN24T do?

Do we have anyone from your neck of the woods going to Harrogate, or should I
post it?
