Beefing up a Craftsman 6" and a "chop and channel" I'll dare to ask the questions

Tom,

I haven't noticed whether or not 1"-10 ER collet chucks can be readily bought or not. But I would find it quite odd if 1"-8 was available and 1"-10 isn't. After all, there arent a lot of things that one could do on a wood lathe on a work piece as small as 1/2" or 5/8" diameter. And there are a lot more 618's, 101.21400's. 101.21200's. 3950's and 10100's around than there are 101.07301's.
 
Mark (aka Rasputin),

Good luck with the Emco.
 
The owner of the Emco had to cancel, so I'm on hold until he gets back to me. Not a great concern, I can be patient.

1"-10 ER32 collet chucks are available. The only ones I found are plain back with a 1" 10tpi back adapter bolted on and appear to be imported.

I didn't like the large stick-out and heavy relative mass so I turned a one piece. Bought the nut, ain't gonna try turning that. Works quite good.
 
Check out what "Stephan Gooteswinter" think i spelled it right, did to his chinese 9 x 20,,,he now has a precision lathe.
