It is possible - Before i got my rotur kit i used to go between centres, with a dead centre in the drive and a live center in the tail, slight pressure - not too much.
easy enough to turn a small 7mm stub, preferably with a very very slight taper, upon which to locate a drilled blank but why would you turn such a blank before installing the tube?
as John said (and I have to admit to having done
) it's easy enough to turn off a screw-up and re-glue the tube if necessary. I certainly wouldn't want to mess about gluing on in after turning!
