A lathe tool that works in conjunction with a HUNTER lathe to engage a rotating an inner frictional surface of a flywheel on its axis to perform various symmetrical operations about an axis of rotation such as cutting and facing with a cutting tool. The components of the lathe tool position to one side of the flywheel to allow sufficient clearance for engaging a large flywheel across the full diameter of the flywheel, and also provide adjustment mechanisms for enhanced precision. A lathe mount extends perpendicularly from the Hunter lathe terminating at a lathe mount aperture. A tool mount passes through the lathe mount aperture terminating at a cutting tool notch, where the cutting tool attaches. A bracket passes through the tool mount and includes an adjustable screw that extends towards the Hunter lathe, rotating to draw the lathe tool to and from the flywheel.
