Example text
Square table leg is about the biggest it can handle. If work is taken off of the lathe, rechucking is much easier with a steb center because it tends to center more accurately than a normal drive center. TAILSTOCK CENTERS The tailstock center, which mounts in the tailstock spindle, centers the work and exerts force through itself to the drive center in the headstock. It also gives radial support to the work, thereby holding it in the lathe. As with drive centers, the tailstock center has a Morse-taper shaft, but the business end is quite different.
A mini center (second from right) is necessary when a delicate footprint is desired, such as when turning very small spindles, pen blanks, and the like. The cen ter at far right is typical of those supplied with economy lathes; it is built on a short Morse taper. How M a ny Spurs? iven a chOice, buy a two-spur cen G ter rather than a four-spur center. It holds better if the end of your bil et is not square and just as well as a four spur center if it is square. Centers 41 Steb centers are g reat for furniture work where the ends are cut square because they allow you to stop the work without stopping the lathe simply by easing the tailstock pressure.
Range for any spindle work up to about 30 in. between centers and general faceplate work 13 in. to 16 in. dia. Bowl lathes • Tuming bowls Swing: at least 16 in. and often 22 in. or more. Length between centers: not much much more than 24 in. (on a true bowl lathe the tailstock is minimal, meant only to provide support during roughing) Omamental lathes (OT lathes) • OT attachments do end-grain Capacities are typically modest-no more than 6 in. center height. cutting, side-grain cutting, and threading.
