Full disclaimer - I'm normally a wood tinkerer! :D

Recently become the owner of a Hafco HM-32 Mill, so I shot out and got myself a ER32 collet chuck to get me started with a few projects that I have in mind.
Discovered that one of the quirks with the HM-32 mill is the 1/2" BSW draw bar. From what I have seen in my limited internet browsing, most tools seem to be for a 12mm thread draw bar.

Although I am tempted to grab myself a bit of mild steel rod and fabracobble a bodgey 12mm draw bar, was wondering if others had come across a similar issue and what their solution was?
