    Small Live center

    I needed a small live center to work on small diameter pieces on my lathe. I had bearings and an old morse taper #2 laying around. Since the bearings don't have good thrust, I dropped a hardened ball into the pocket before inserting the bearings. See the parts before and after assembly.
