Line 609:
* Using reamers
* Turning between centres
** Why you might do it
*** Improved concentrically and repeatability
*** Holding awkward shapes
*** Reusing centers on existing parts or that someone else cut
** Setting up a center and a catch plate
*** Alternatively making a center on stock held in a 3/4 jaw chuck
*** Live or Dead center at the tailstock?
*** Might require the use of steadies if the part is long
** Tailstock offset turning
*** Regular centers only for the smallest of offsets
*** Using ball-bearing centers
**** Part distortion if used too much
*** Using ball-bearing centers for larger offsets
* Making and shaping brazed carbide cutters
