When I needed a draw-bar for my lathe, I made one. My lathe has a tapered hole in the back, so I just made a taper-plug type things. Then I needed the other of M10 or M12 that I started with, and made another - which is a bit nicer, as I learned a little on doing the first one.

nice work! collet chucks are very handy. I'd suggest trying to index it around in your spindle nose... i bet you'll find a position of least error. mark both parts for future reference. also check the squareness of your matings faces and the end (back) of your spindle.

Anyway, you show how you can use skill and patience to solve problems other people I have seen throw money at and go "eh, good enough".

So refreshing. A machinist who know her stuff and is awesomely articulate! I’ve been using ER collets in sizes 16, 32, 40 for many years and they are my go-to holders, even for drilling, tailstock tool holding, etc.. My Jacobs Chuck suffered from isolation and being ignored... I fabricated a drawbar and adapter for my MT5 spindle (~40 year old Maximat Super 11). And, yes, they are used in my Emco jr.-sized MT2 mill too using their standard MT2 holders. I’ve also brought a trick over from my wood lathe I fabricated both follow and steady rests from in-line skate wheels. Eliminates the problems when following or supporting unfinished materials yet nicely controls chatter. Sorry I can’t provide photos but everything is packed for an upcoming and very traumatic move...

Great video, I enjoyed it very much. I liked how you overcame all the little snags and limitations of your equipment. Look forward to the next one. ER collets are really popular in the UK. You can also improve concentricity of them by using a ball race closing nut. These are relatively cheap and incorporate a thrust bearing which enables you to tighten the collet down more. Tests show this positively affects concentricity.

You will really like having a collet chuck. Quick and easy holding short parts even on threads. I ordered a collet chuck & collet set with my PM lathe. The chuck is the set-tru type and the 5C collets are very good. Using gage pins it gives better than .0005' total runout. I've only used the inside stop a few times but it works great, one of the advantages of the 5C. The disadvantage is how many collets it takes to make a complete set, but they get used on the tool grinder and spin index also. Thanks for the video.

I recently made a drawbar and one thing I added was a delrin doughnut, just slightly smaller than spindle bore, and a tight fit around the drawbar. Shoved it a few inches from the collet end. This way when inserting the bar it prevents the bar from dropping and scratching the spindle bore, and also centers it so it’s easy to find the thread in the back of the collet.

Great project, when I first started using the ER32 collets, I made a similar drawbar arrangement. It worked well except for longer work on my 7x14. I then found a ER32 collet holding faceplate. I was able with indexing on the lathe (quite a common practice on the Chinese lathes) to get about. 0006 runout on the parts, but as you know, will possibly change every time you change to a different collet. The runout has been acceptable so far, and I am not limited by the drawbar plugging up the spindle. The drawbar is less work than the faceplate to set up, but working with these machines, you get used to the diddle factor induced by them. Great work!

I have an ER32 collet chuck on my 7x12 lathe that I bought on Amazon for ~$100, built to register on the 100mm backing plate that my 3-jaw normally bolts to. Very happy with it, and only out by about 2 thou at the part

I've had good results on troublesome cold-rolled using a KC732 type inserts. I can take light cuts at low SFM without getting that torn up finish. It's a TPG type insert with no chip breaker geometry. I think the neutral rake is what helps.

I have the same kind but ER40. I made a hollow drawbar out of 1" .. max OD that will fit through my spindle .. mechanical tubing. I attached some ends with one having the 5/8" 11 thread but with a .. I think .. a 7/16" hole through it so I can pass long work through it. The other end is set up so I can put a adjustable stop rod through it so I can make repeatable cuts when needed.

I bought an ER32 collet closer off of AliExpress a few years back. It worked ok but had excessive runout. I recently splurged on a Taiwanese one (Ann-Way, I think). Much better, negligible runout. Mine is swapped between my mill and my lathe, and when holding a cutting tool in the mill, the cheaper holder was only cutting on one flute due to the runout. I just use a piece of threaded rod with a handwheel on the end as a drawbar, because I'm a heathen. I turned an aluminium collar the ID of the spindle bore and have it double-nutted partway down so the rod can't whip around. I'm not a fan of transmitting shock loads through the headstock bearings, so I cut a piece of PVC pipe and milled a couple of slots in it. This slips over the body of the chuck, and you close the nut against it, holding the chuck from turning using the spanner through the milled slots. Pops right out of the taper like Yahtzee.

Rooting around in the stygian underworld that is the cupboard space under the 70 year old Boxford lathes at work, I found a couple of collet chuck sets; I keep meaning to drag them out and try them - this has inspired me to do just that!

An excellent video as usual. I have one more ebay find you might enjoy. The "for aluminum" carbide inserts that are honed razor sharp and have loads of positive rake work wonders on our hobby sized lathes. I cut steel with them routinely and they are surprisingly tough.

@John Ghatti Sorry to be so slow, but I have been a bit swamped. I use several different ground "for aluminum" inserts and routinely use any of them on steel. Currently on hand I have: WCGT TCGT VCGT CCGT DCGT The high positive rake and razor sharp edges keep the cutting pressures low and the surface finishes smooth. Our small lower powered machines benefit greatly.

I enjoy watching your videos, and seeing how you approach different tasks and problems. Your results are always impressive. Many times I have supported a workpiece close to the end with only the steady rest. I would use a dial indicator to adjust the steady rest jaws to minimize or even eliminate runout. For a few light passes on a thread like you needed this would be a snap. Not as accurate as staying in centers, but very workable. Have you considered using some ground high positive inserts for aluminum on the mild steel? They actually work well, but the edge doesn't last as long. You can also buy HSS inserts to go in your holder. I think at least a couple companies market them to owners of hobby type lathes. Then again, you can always grind your own HSS bits and not worry about the insert holders. Thanks for all you do.

Hey Q! Just wanted to say thanks! I did my first hss cutter per your instructions (-10° table one) and made my first part with it yesterday. It’s a brass hex stock large enough to hold a silver dollar (38mm) so I can center drill coins quickly before ringing them and to use as soft jaws in my engravers ball vise. Funny enough I made the first cutter to your specs then turned it around and ground the same geometry but and I swear I about jumped out my seat; I ground the side with a much more tapered nose like you did when turning the brass rod. Wanna say around 30° rather than the 5° in the original cutter video. This project is on my list for sure as I’ve made a milling attachment and using the stock chuck to mill, well sounds shitty to do. Thanks for posting this vid, I’ll get it done at some point

Nice project Quinn. I have been planning on the same thing for some time. My 1947 South Bend takes 3C collets, with a maximum of 9/16". I also thought about experimenting with a hand wheel on the closure nut. Your bum steel was probably 1018. It is the bane of our existance
