		 Finally got a camera this year, well we got the kids one. 
The live center is made of parts from the local hardware store.  
A 3/4" steel axle 
A bronze bearing to match 
A brass washer 
A fender washer 
A locking nut 
You would need to grind a point on the end of the axle, I did it by spinning it against a belt sander. 
On the drive end I use a cut off speedbore bit that I "unsharpened" 
a pipe flange and a piece of pipe with a brace clamped to the drill press. 
It's worked for the past couple of years
