Is there a way to change the center of rotation for manipulating the model with a spaceball.

I am modeling a part in air craft space at say 20" in x, 525" in y and 140" in z from the defualt 0,0,0 rotation center of the part and its very difficult to rotate/translate the model with the spaceball and not loose my part as it flys off the screen.
 
Click on your part with the middle mouse button to recenter the spin axis.
