An upgrade to the eye chrometer for indicating is to get a piece of plastic or wood dowel rod and put it in the tool post. Then run it up close to the part and dial it in that way. Itsmuxh easier to see with the dowel rod close to it than just eyeballing in the open. Great video as always Sir.
Ooh, nice! It’s Christmas again, and you got a shiny new 4 jaw chuck!
Snappy title. Makes a person curious to click it.

In hindsight, while I dialled the stock into the chuck itself fairly nicely, I completely forgot that the chuck was out of center.
cool!!! Use HHS bits its far better for small lathes
I've got some HSS tooling, but I need to go over it and sharpen them.
