Centering Hex stock in a 4 jaw?
This is my approach to centering hex in a four jaw. Slow, reasonable accurate. Are there better ways?

Saw this a while ago and saved it to the memory banks, could come in handy.
Guessing you don't have a 3 jaw otherwise it would be much easier to just use a 3 jaw.

Hi Guys,
Because hex bar isn't always uniform and quite difficult to centre in a four jaw chuck, I usually just clock each corner and adjust accordingly.Best Regards:
