BiggerHammer:
Thank you gentlemen. I am glad that I have finally been able to make a useful contribution. I was beginning to feel quite guilty. I was getting so much enjoyment/education/ideas from the site and not really making that much of a contribution.
SwarfnStuff:
OOO, Hey Mr Wilson, Do you think one of mine got eaten by your swarf monster too? Tiny workshop, still stuff manages to hide from me. Could be the unwritten rule that horizontal surfaces will collect STUFF operates across the globe.  :D
Henning:
Well, the ever hiding center drill, the fact i seem to use one size all the time as that was close and the fact i had just really tidied up in the wood drills i have combined with this brilliant idea quickly added up to a couple hours of lathe and drillpress work and what do you know:



I added a magnet in the bottom just glued in with Cyanoacrylate to be able to leave it on the lathe or drillpress without pushing it off:



And here's the spot drill and center drills in their place:



Thanks for sharing this great project!
philf:
Made mine tonight out of a piece of plastic - I incorporated a magnet as in Hennings design.

It's now stuck to my lathe - where I can find it.

Thanks for the idea.
