Next up on the list, an Er32 collet chuck for my South Bend.
I bought an 80mm er32 chuck off Amazon so that the current lack of metric threading on my lathe didn't hold me up. Also got a cheap HHIP cast iron back plate to cut up.
Started with the back plate,
trepanned out the bit I wanted
Faced and bored
Badly threaded, thread gauge fits but won't fit on the spindle
