I recently bought a collet chuck for the Logan, and found that I needed some way of holding the chuck while tightening the collet nut, and wasn't willing
to lock the spindle with back gears to do it. So, I decided to fabricate a pin spanner to take advantage of a set of holes drilled in the face of the chuck.
Finished it up this morning by silver brazing the pins into the handle: got a little messy on the first one and had to file off some extra material, but it came
out fine and it fits the chuck nicely.

Sure, you could buy one, but you wouldn't have the sense of satisfaction every time you picked it up to use it. Nice job!
 
Thanks. I honestly never thought to measure the hole spacing and look for an off the shelf wrench.
