💡 Why do woodturners prefer a live center over a stationary drive plate?
A handy setup reduces friction while keeping long boards dead straight. You will spend less time squinting at alignment marks because the spinning tip follows your lathe axis perfectly. Watch how these three factors change your workflow.
- Rounded ball tracks absorb side pressure from roughing gouges
- Taper locking mechanism grips the tailstock quill without slipping
- Open center bore lets your screw chuck pass right through the shaft
