Centering rectangular stock in 4 jaw
I am working on a project where I want to face off some rectangular stock and if possible drill a centre hole (although I could do that on mill later). I intended on facing one side, then flipping over to the other and have two nice parallel surfaces. I have centred round stock in the independent 4 jaw previously using a dial indicator but I am unsure of best approach with the rectangular stock. I wondered if I should pick a corner and basically find a sort of top dead centre to compare and adjust to? I am sure there is a better way so I hope someone can set me right.
