You can't spin a mandrel against a dead center can you? Seems like it would get hot real quick. Re: dead centers

Yes, you can, but only so fast. You should also use some lubrication. I turn all of my wood inserts that contain a high degree of resin on a dead center spotted with just a drop of oil. They do not get hot and I have not had any problems. If you have a live center, however, I'd use it. ......... Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
