That means knocking off .045" First, gotta get it right in the four jaw. I like to push it tight against the chuck with a flattened live center. Then get the run out down to just a few .001s

In the first two pics, the MS260 is on the right..... MS260 026

The front covers on these saws blows the exhaust on the PTO side of the case, and makes a mess.......so..... Then some port matching.
