Say you've laid out the end of a shaft for a center hole
to take a dead center and the hole comes out a bit off
center. How would you go about 'moving' the hole
back to center?

Guess I'd better add some more info on this. The bar is
1.75" 4140 B7 , rough finish surface, too big to pass
through
the spindle, 30" long, no extra length. I managed to do it
but
got curious what others would do.

Brass bush , steadyrest , and a very pointy lathe bit . And as Grant said ,
a PITA . I've been turning some 4140 lately , what fun !
Almost as much fun as the Ampco 18 ...
