From a total novice turner (of a sort) a dummy question! what is the correct method of setting a moving steady? do you set the cutting tool in the middle of the steady inserts mine being about a 1/4" wide which means you have a groove when the cuts starts and would have to adjust the inserts again after stopping the lathe and spoiling the finish!
it seems to me where ever you set cutting tool at the front of the steady supports or behind, you get a slight shoulder problem, at one or the other end, of the piece you are turning
I am probably missing the blinding obvious here, but would appreciate your knowledgable answers :-\
