Greetings all.
I have the New Escoulen eccentric chuck, my Nova DVR has a US spec 1 1/4" spindle thread on it, the chuck I got, from Jean-Francois when he was here in Japan, is a 33 x 3.5 Euro spec thread. I got an adapter from Craft Supplies USA, so I'm good to go.
A buddy here in Japan has a Vicmarc VL300 short bed lathe, he would really like the same chuck, but his lathe has a 30 x 3.5 spindle size.... :?
We have been told by the importer that this is the "Australian" standard spindle thread size, is that true?
Does anyone know is someone sells a 30 x 3.5 to 33 x 3.5 or 30 x 3.5 to 1 1/4" sized adapter?
The Escoulen chuck only comes in 33x3.5 or 1 1/4" spindle size.
If you guys could help me out, I'd appreciate it.
Cheers! :2tsup:
