I saw that, and the long pipe gripped in the chuck with the huge bearing so it all turned. The bearing is nice but $$$$$$ and not needed if the tube is turned truly round. That would allow, in combination with a spider on the back of the spindle, the barrel to be aligned with the bore regardless of how shitty the chuck or the barrels OD was. An 18" piece of 3" schedule, turned so the steady shoes rode it, and enough brass screws (12?) to lock the barrel w/o marking it up, seems to be the ideal method. I believe I see a trip to the scrap yard over near Grafton in my future. > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >-------- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's > most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot > _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
