It depends on the surface finish of the workpiece. For machined surface a magnetic base dial indicator is used. For rough or un-machined surfaces a surface gauge is used.
You would either need a 4 jaw chuck or a faceplate.
The bed length of a lathe is the total length of the bed way from where it starts to (close to the headstock) to where it ends. When a lathe is advertized for sale it would show for example: 200mm x 1000mm or 8" x 40". The 200mm or 8" describes the "swing" of the machine and the 1000mm or 40" describes the workable distance between the chuck and center. This should not be confused with the bed size of a lathe as the bed houses the tail stock and therefore the distance is shortened.
The hollow spindle of a lathe allows for longer lengths of material to be held in the chuck thus eliminating constant material changing to and from the lathe in production turning. The best advantage is the saving in material costs. If one had to manufacture 20 bushings and they were all cut into separate billets, half of the material would be lost because the chuck needs some material to grip the work piece on. If for example 20 bushings of 50mm OD by 50mm long have to be made, one would need a piece of material of at least 1150mm long. A single shaft or hollow bar of this length can usually be stuck into the hollow spindle with only enough material sticking out to make one or two bushings at a time. Once they are parted off, the material can simply be pulled out and the next one or two bushings can be machined. In the end the wastage will only be a piece of material of 70mm long instead of 20 pieces of 40 or 50mm long without a hollow spindle.

A vertical align property in a design is used when the alignment of the element's content needs to be vertical on the line. It is used to align text within a style's property.
One would use a lathe chuck as a type of clamp used to hold onto the rotating tool bit on a lathe, a lathe chuck is also known by a different name: a collet.
You would either need a 4 jaw chuck or a faceplate.
I would use a metalworking lathe with a four-jaw chuck mounted on the headstock. You can start with a hunk of metal or from a rough casting.
To "chuck" means to throw - "chuck it down" would mean to throw something down.
The first task of operating a center lathe is to clean the area around it, the machine itself, and oiling the beds. But if you are asking what the first task is when the preparation of the machine and workplace is done, drawing and material collected, chuck replaced if necessary, cutting tools selected and set up, then the first task on the machine itself would be to clamp the workpiece in the chuck.

Internal chuck jaws are designed to hold the work internally whereas external jaws hold the work externally. If we use a cylinder as an example the internal chuck jaws would fit into the hole and apply outward presure to grip the work. External jaws would sit on the outside of the cylinder and apply preasure inward to hold the work.

Would that be like a Seneca Falls lathe, with drive belts comming down from overhead?
No, a metal lathe is specifically designed for working with metal, not wood. To turn wood, you would need a wood lathe, which is designed for that purpose.
That would be woodturner.
