If your tailstock barrel is not aligned with the spindle, any center (including a perfectly good one) is going to make work want to walk out of the chuck. It will force the end of the part to rotate around a point that is not on the spindle axis, and that means the part is being rocked back and forth in the chuck once per revolution. -- John Kasunich jmkasun...@fastmail.fm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 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
