What a bloody marvellous video. Thanks. A good tip for any centring is to use a pair of proportional dividers set at 2:1 - will save your eyesight and the mental fiddling with numbers. Open the long points to the whole space, and the short points automatically give you the centre. 'Equal spacing' dividers can do the same trick, and many other helpful dividing tasks.
