Speed handle for a 5C chuck.

You do not need hex collets, only 5C collet block holders in square and hex or an indexer. Design uses a round body. I used some 1" O1 rod, did not see the need to heat treat it for this application. I was tight on space for my chuck keys so it hangs on my rack using the open hex.

Not using the outside hole, but holding onto both sides of the body with my hands not holding the handle, so holding it as you would for a T handle to tighten is needed to get the leverage. Since both ends of the lever are rounded, very easy on the hands..
just as I thought, thank you !
