Over the years I have been frustrated by the fact that some of the No 2 MT centres I use are too short to self eject from the tailstock. The problem was exacerbated when I fitted a digital readout to the tailstock. The collar around the barrel, which held the arm of the digital calliper I cut down to make the DRO, reduced the return of the barrel still more. I therefore decided to make all my No 2 MT centres self eject by using super glue to fix brass buttons of the appropriate length to the ends of the short No 2 morse tapers.
