May be used as a spindle-adapter for a wood lathe from LatheCity   Included: Morse Taper #2 (MT2) to 1"-8 TPI (x1.5" thread length), steel, 1/4-20 drawbar, RH threads + nut and washer  runout should be sufficient for a wood lathe                   LatheCity tip: Putting a shoulder on the spindle would be significantly more expensive. We can do that as a custom design, but $60. If you need a shoulder to hold a chuck then use a nut and eventually a washer (included). Tighten the nut against the chuck. The thread length (1.5") is long enough for most chucks which require only 1" thread length. 1-8TPI nuts should be available locally in a good hardware store, but we offer one together with the spindle. In addition, various chucks are in circulation which require different thread length. This spindle has an "adjustable" thread length. These are right hand threads, i.e., don't reverse RPM. The spindles are taped at the backend for 1/4-20 bolts which can be used to fix a drawbar. A drawbar is common on metal lathes. It is a bolt or threaded rod which is inserted into the backend of the spindle to secure the spindle. This may not be necessary for wood lathes. The spindles have an estimated runout smaller 0.005" which is sufficient for wood lathes. The piece is cut on a lathe with spindle runout of 0.0004"-0.0006" The chuck should be screwed against the nut. Hold the nut with a wrench and screw the chuck against the nut. Draw bar is not included, use a long 1/4-20 screw or threaded rod (if required on your lathe). The length of the drawbar depends on your lathe model, they are all different, i.e., it would not make sense to include this.         Safety Notes, Trouble Shooting, and Disclaimer: General safety rules for machine/power tools are in place. For an extended list of safety notes, consult the literature or go to our website. You can download free of charge a safety booklet, which is also typically included (free of charge) for first-time customers. Use protective closing including, most importantly, safety glasses.  The adapter may start to rotate. Do not try to stop the rotating adapter with your hands. Do not reverse the lathe rotation direction or one may unscrew the adapter. Use the drawbar to secure the spindle. The spindle should rotate towards you (on front side of the lathe bed). The chuck should be screwed against the nut. Hold the nut with a wrench and screw the chuck against the nut. The runout (TIR) of the adapter may not be sufficient for using it on a metal lathe. TIR estimated as approx. 0.005" (Machined on a lathe with TIR 0.0006") RPM maximum are 2800. We do not warrant that any accessories can be used for any particular application.
