Excellent work! I like it!
Machines sharing tooling is a great thing. Before I got my old Atlas horiz mill running, I did all my work on the Taig lathe, including milling. As a result, I amassed lots of Taig tooling. Lost a lot of it, rebuilding now, but I purchased an MT2 to Taig arbor. Suddenly I had access to all my Taig tooling on the Atlas. It's nice to be able to grab almost any Taig accessory to use on the Atlas.
I have a cheapie Horrible Fright 4" rotary table, and tapped the center hole 1/4x20, then made a stub that's 1/4x20 to 3/4x16 so I can screw a Taig chuck onto it. Works great!
