Center-Drilling the Blank (Prior to Turning)

[stripermaineiac]

Hi Eric, I use the Sorby live an step centers. Work pretty good most times. Sometimes I swap an put one of the big point live centers in for bigger tail holes an experiments.You just have to be carefull not to put too much pressure on that one as it will cause the wood to split. I do mostly 5/32 but there are some woods with crazy sap lines that I use 3/16. Ron
