WTB: Brown and Sharpe #7 Taper Arbors

[hustlebird]

Hey all, like the title say, I'm looking for BS #7 arbors / tooling for my bridgeport m-head. I have the 7-piece collet set (wouldn't mind replacing it with a better quality one), and the ER32 collet chuck toolholder already. Really top of mind would be a nice drill chuck, or even just the BS7 to JT arbor. The setup of drill chuck + 1/2" straight shank to 1/2" collet into the machine isn't doing it for me. I also wouldn't mind a boring bar, or again, just an arbor to accept one.

Beyond that, I don't have anything I'm actively looking for, but if you find or have it, I'm likely interested. Feel free to PM or reply here. Thanks!

I have a B&S #7 shell mill arbor that I have no use for.

I've been watching ebay closely, and over the year have picked up 3x 3/8's end mill holders, and a 1/2" end mill holder. Those have gone a long way. I also bought a keyless chuck from @mattthemuppet2 with a 1/2" short shank which made the collet + chuck much friendlier.

Not much out there unfortunately. I did pick up a NOS bridgeport 1/16" collet, not that I'll ever run anything that small, but as a reference taper if I ever need to make my own.
