Yeah I thought about that afterwards. I'm going to check it out when I get home see what I can do. Either way it was time to upgrade the chuck. I'll make something work lol

I went ahead and ordered the adapter for my HF lathe to make it compatible with the rest of the world and ordered a threaded chuck so life is good now lol.

Yeah but now ya got me wondering lol. I've been looking at upgrading my chuck for awhile. This may be my reason to change it. I'm using the central machinery lathe from Harbor Freight and just found the adapter at Penn State Industrial for it so maybe I'll do that and go buy the nova finally. Makes more sense cause I can do a lot of other projects that way too. Thank you for the help Ron!

Anybody know if you can get turning mandrels that are shorter than what mudhole or getbit sells? They are a bit long for my lathe. I will probably end up just buying couple more from those guys and cut them down to where I want them but I just figured I'd ask if anybody knew somewhere we could get them already. Thank You!
