Gatsby Drive Center and Bushing

[teamtexas]

I didn't like using a mandrel so I decided to make my own bushings to turn between centers. As I was cutting the bushings from a piece of steel rod I got to thinking it would work better if I just made one bushing for the tailstock end and make the drive end a bushing style drive center that can be chucked up. It worked great!
