Im abit slow ok but this is what I did , I turned down a piece
of alum. in a 3 jaw chuck , spun alum down so the its tight to
bore size of jug, , with jug mounted on alum using the bore to
be centered I then drilled the 4 holes that once threaded will
hold the cylinder to the alum. so if you want to cut the squish
band you can, its not perfect but it has you very close to
center to start with

Never thought of doing it that way.

Why not just a fly cutter for the squish band?

Might be tight between centers but the swing is fine. Be a good
piece of old iron.

The Hardinge is probably the better of the two as far as
accuracy .It,the English CVA and USA Monarch 10" EE are highly
sought after toolmakers lathes .18" between centers is fine for
chainsaw work but a little short for many other tasks .FWIW the
CVA is almost a carbon copy of the Monarch .Both I think are 20"
between centers ,the Monarch will swing 12.5"
A suggestion ,if you are unsure of what you are buying take a
knowledgeable person with you and make certain you see it run
under power before you buy it .No power,the price really drops .
