Lathe L0 spindle nose adaptor manufacturer! How to make a new backplate

Make a chuck backplate take 2!! With a new four jaw ready to go on the lathe, I needed to acquire a spindle nose adaptor to mount the chuck. Because new items are expensive, we look to turn a couple of lumps of stock into an adaptor plate. Unlike the last video, here the adaptor is made from scratch. Using some steel from the stock pile, I am cable to cut the taper, the correct thread and fit the adaptor tightly to the chuck. Even using an old lathe like the one I’ve got, it’s possible to hold enough accuracy to make a decent job. With a couple of close fits and an accurate taper needed, accuracy is key. Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy!
