Hi all. Been researching this for around a year now. I repair timepieces, mostly large grandfather clocks, and my watchmakers lathe just was'nt large enough.
Today I ordered a PM 1127 VF LB from Matt.
Now the questions begin: I don't think much of buying a chuck specific for using a 5c collet, but that is what
is offered from Precision Mathews.
Has anyone out there built/purchased a morse adapter or draw bar that fits this lathe that will accept 5c collets?
Looking forward to learning more about this machine as the delivery draws near.
btw: I also have the pm45 mill with dro, and have been very happy with it.
