Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Homemade Live Center

I stacked them in there because I figured the more the merrier :) and for
this one I used regular skate bearings, even though I know they're probably
not the optimal - this was just an exercise in getting something done :) I
did buy an actual MT3 live center too but I was just looking for something
to make to get some experience :)
