I'm not going to be in Philly for a while, so I thought I'd mail-order a coupld of small items,
I got meself a steb centre, as I had one on my old lathe, and like it, a 60º live centre as mine has jammed up, and a diamond parting tool, to avoid the few times I have burned stuff when parting larger turnings.
The old 60º live centre I had got some rust on it due to condensation in winter storage, and I dipped in Evaporust, which took the rust off nicely, but some got into the bearings I guess, and it jammed up on me. I'll take it apart later and see if I can fix it.
