Starting handle

One of the parts missing from my engine was a starting handle brass bush. It is a fairly rare beast being 1-1/4" x 18tpi. I asked around the s/h dealers but had no luck so I decided to make one. I have a thread cutting gearbox on my Myford so time to make good use of it.

Here is the resulting part off the lathe
