Funny. I wound up painting mine, as the car came from Atlantic City and the salt hazed the red powder coating. I wish I had them re-coated, but I painted instead. I was replacing all pads, seals, boots, and rotors so why the hell not?

The captive spring steel ring in the handle is definitely the good stuff. Handle slides smooth and predictably, instead of the old ball detent 3 position style.
i have not bought it yet, but when i first got the lathe, i was thinking ever since then, that it was a D1-4, well i went to pull the chuck off so that i could clean the inside of the spindle and all! And to my amazement, it is a D1-3! Now I wonder, how many Emco Super 11's have a D1-3 on it? Anywho, what this boils down to, is that i will be needing a ER setup. I would like a 40, the biggest material i would prob hold in the ER collets would a tad over one inch. It is that or i'll have to get a ER collet block and mount it in the 4 jaw on the lathe..
What is your opinion about stuff from HHIP? The have a D1-3 direct mount ER40

Are you positive it is D1-3?

so you like removing the handle on your T wrench? just out of curiosity, why?
Stores more compact, can use the box. Real benefit for me is it just moves smoother when tapping close to an obstruction.
Before I got that. I would look at the PM offering first, as it is a set tru style. That is if you have a D1-4 (also has just 3 cam-locks so measure if you haven’t…) the majority of your run out will be solved with that. Then a bearing style nut would help, but marginally less that of the set tru.
my Chuck runout is less than 1/10th
To store it back in the bag and then in its box... I get the feeling of having a new tool every time I need to use it again
Ok, I thought there was a usage that I wasn't thinking of. My generals are captured, they don't come out as far as I know. Which is fine. I like them like that.To store it back in the bag and then in its box... I get the feeling of having a new tool every time I need to use it again
