[[Image:Bench2_5_08_layout.JPG|thumb|300px|]]I like to work pipes through in small batches using one of two different methods--the more traditional method, where I drill with the stummel chucked in the lathe before shaping, and the shape first method, where I shape first, and then drill freehand after the initial shaping.
