Isn't this just for turning hard wax rods?

Curtis is correct and even if it was able to turn silver I highly doubt the tolerances would be near close enough for gaff work!
There's a topic in the Workshop section discussing lathes capable of gaff type work! MMc |

Why not get an old UniMat. That's what was used to prototype the gaffed coins for Johnson Products.

Along with the UniMat you may want to get about a thousand coins to start the learning curve!

I knew a man that spent hundreds of dollars, just to be able to make his own Folding Coin (a Quarter). All this to save the few bucks for a professionally made gaff.

And in the immortal words of the documentation of Spare Change, it's like spending $1.00 to counterfeit pennies.....

I guess your right. I Just have the itch to do some creative work but to spend a shi# load of money and have no idea what to do with it seems meaningless. Cheers Im calling Todd. LOL

You would need much more than a lathe to make most coins, a laser to cut for a folding or flipper coin is the new standard for precise cutting, and let's not forget it will need to be polished, more tools.it is a very hard thing to do and these coins we can buy are worth the money.
