They have to get profiled somehow the profile fairy doesn’t do it . The big outfits have a lathe that has a follower rest that reads the cutting depth and automatically adjusts to stay against the barrel opposite the cutter as it is turned . This helps stop deflection away from the cutting tool and reduces chatter.
