However, once you complete the inside hollowing of a bowl or vessel and it’s time to work on the outside, traditional live center points cannot be used without ruining the finished floor of your turning. It is a real heartbreaker to spend hours shaping a beautiful piece, only to have a sudden catch or hard knot tear it off the lathe spindle—destroying your hard work on the floor, or worse, causing injury.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThat is exactly why we designed our new \u003cb\u003eThread-On Tailstock Centering Cones\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eBy securing your workpiece properly on both ends, you stabilize the wood and prevent it from flexing or moving away from your tool. This rigid, dual-end support results in much cleaner cuts, smoother surface finishes, and far less sanding. Because you aren't fighting wood vibration or worrying about a catastrophic catch, your time at the lathe becomes a much more relaxing and enjoyable experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccurate Alignment of Segmented Rings and Turning Blocks on the Lathe\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eBeyond firm workpiece support, these cones are an excellent asset for assembling turnings on your lathe.
