Which live centre to buy?
I'm purchasing a spur drive and live centre for spindle turning, and looking for recommendations.
Carbatec have two different models, a single bearing economy model, and a double bearing heavy duty model. I'm just starting out, and am only going to be doing the occasional turning, but I have a lot of years left in me, and I do appreciate nice tools. Do most people go for the more expensive double bearing centres, or is the single bearing model just fine for hobby use? Also, I was planning to just go for a point, but I've also seen cups, point plus cup, or interchangeable models.
Any thoughts or recommendations?
