Good tips, Lot of how you do it depends on the bolt to be used, how long what size. Most of the time using the drill press I index the table end on a lathe center dropped in a drilled in plywood hole. That way when reversing the index is fat enough to find center in the Frosner bit hole.

If the job to be drilled is under about 36 inches almost always use the lathe. Not any better just faster to set up.
