Hi
I wasn't sure if this is the best sub-forum... I think sub-forums may have changed since the last time I posted here.
I'm looking for a small live center to allow room for some tools to get close. My regular most used live center is a Nakane specifically for this reason. I think I got it after a recommendation on this forum and it's very good.
I thought about the Nakane TP model but can't find it anywhere LF model
However I'm going to buy a Concentric spring loaded live center and wondering if this could be a good alternative. I've never used a spring loaded center before and most of my use for it is different. I don't work on very heavy materials anyway. I'm wondering if the spring center can work well for this, negating my need for a small nose live center (whatever it is called... sorry it is my second language).
Otherwise I'm looking for suggestions for good quality "narrow end" live centers...
Rohm and Royal are two companies that are available locally but for some reason they are extremely expensive here (much more than in the USA for example).
However I can order from the USA in this case, but Royal even in the USA is more than I'd like to spend on this.
Thank you for any suggestions
