I believe he would indicate it between centers and machine it in the steady.

Thanks for the reality check Butch, I totally missed the bit where he said he would set the centre on the threads, which is what I would do. As has been said, half the job is done anyway and generally I work with what I have, or the customer gives me.
Adapt and overcome? :-)
