Centering Copy Rings

[Steven in Iowa]

How do you guys center the copy rings with the bit on your OF 1010?  The attaching screws have clearance and so do the through holes so it can move back and forth a good 1MM or 2

I was going to say that they made two--one with a 1/4-inch shank and one 8mm, but JRB has shown a new part with what appears to be both shank diameters on one unit.

That Centering Mandrel (492187) is available in the US for 22 USD.

Thanks guys, that's exactly what I was looking for.  I must have looked right at it and didn't see it.
