Greetings all;

I bought a boring head with a range up to 3". but currently need to bore slightly over .750"
for this project.

But the head offsets in a kit of boring bars are such the a 1/2" wide bar, while boring about the size hole I need, is also leaving about 3/16" in the center as an uncut post sticking up. So I assume that proper orientation of the boring bar in the head might assure its cleaning out the center.

Is there a rule of thumb about how to orient the bar vs the head sliders motion to achieve that?

Or do I have a duff set of boring bars? I have observed that when placed in a qc tool holder
for my lathe, that they have to be jacked up to get them "on center".

Cheers, Gene Heskett.
