Hi all, I just got a NEW 8.5" faceplate. Upon mounting it on the lathe I notice quite a bit of "wobble" or "runout". So, the question at hand is, what is the proper procedure of getting it running true?? Thanks

Paddy, It is made of steel, not cast. I have HSS bits and a small selection of brazed carbide, but I think I'd stick with the HSS bits for this application.
