Hello folks,
I have an old Tanner FS100 lathe that is a solid as a rock. It is fitted with an outboard spindle but I do not have the accessories to do outboard turning.
The spindle is 1-3/6" x 6 TPI LH and the inboard spindle is 1-1/2" x 6 R - cannot fathom why both spindles are not the same size:C.
Anyway, I need either:
a chuck that will fit the 1-3/8" 6 tpi, or
an adapter to allow me to use my standard chuck.
Any ideas??
