Is there a difference between live centers for a metal lathe versa a wood lathe?

Hi Paul,
One thing you will find out real quick is that a metal center will
not pop out of the tail stock like a wood center.
Solution: hold in a wood vice and drill and tap the back end for a
1/4-20 short bolt, get it set so it will pop out then put some
ca on the threads and lock it in place.
