Thanks everybody, I asked for no particular reason other than curiosity.

With the drill press it was very fiddly getting the bed just right so that it drilled to the bottom but had clearance at the top, and after all that, inconsistent results.

So now, lathe every time, accuracy every time. :thumbs:
