I was going to use parallel bars laid flat to get the cylinder off the face plate but I
couldn't keep them out of the bore and out of the way of the clamps. The cylinder flange is thinner than the raise on the clamps, so I need the clamps a bit below the cylinder to get them to work. I need to loosen it up to get centered on the lathe anyway, so I'll try the parallel again sticking out between the clamps. At least I know their ground flat.

Thanks,
Matt
