Our 'live center' is a shop-made affair of many years ago using an open-cage tapered roller bearing. I had to dunk it in the solvent tank to clean out the gunk and dirt, then greased it up a bit. The inner race is not captive so if you back the tailstock off, the bearing will fall out, which also gets it dirty again. It needs to have a proper live center made. You can spend your time making tooling or making parts, this time it was parts.
