Re: Depth stops/lathe spindle center

take a piece or nylon or aluminum, turn the OD to a close match of
the spindle ID drill and/or bore a hole to match the part. drill and
tap through the side of this for a setscrew. slip over the part,
tighten the setscrew and feed the whole thing into the spindle from
the back.
Also good as part of a econo barfeed.
