When you speak of 1.75" -2.00 is this the length of your widest diameter area? Usually we speak of the widest diameter in relationship to the nose. i.e. 1.25 diameter @ 3 1/2" back from nose. Keep spinning and get some calipers to check your dimentions. A slide caliper manual ruler read style can be used to check diameters while spinning to hasten your time. I check with digital caliper after the lathe stops. Glad to have you aboad. Just keep firing your questions. Many here have been making chips for years.
