I'ld like advice on a task. Starting with a 3" aluminum round, slicing off 1" long pieces. I then want to true the ends perpendicular to the axis of the round, hopefully on the lathe. I suspect I would have difficulty getting such short pieces in axial alignment in the chuck, especially since both ends would be of unknown perpendicularity (is that a word?). Any suggestions would be appreciated.
