An " index-plate," a pair of extra centres adjustable as to height and angle with the lathe-bed, and other attachments are now found permaneutly fixed on beds of lathes or machines designated and sold by special names. With such machines the workman is valued not so much for the amount and accuracy of the work accomplished, as for his ability to invent, design, and set up his tools, as will be seen later... in the study of engine-lathe ^voik. 102 THE SPEED-LATHE.
