I am having problem with my lathe's alignment which started producing non-centered pens (which explains why I am not turning much pens recently).
I tried all the fixes I read about it and some helped a bit but did not fix my problem. Including buying a few mandrels. As a last recourse I bought an MT2 reamer and it arrived yesterday.
QUESTION....How do I use it? My reamer have a square end which I am planning on holding with a vise grip...or do I just turn it with my hands? Do I need to lube that thing before using?
Sorry I am clueless and aftraid of messing my lathe further if I "experiment".
Thanks!!!
