Re: Shortening an MT2 arbor
Shortening an arbor is indeed a tough job. Congrats on your success!
Although we don't have a 2MT-6JT arbor, others faced with shortening a 2MT arbor can look to LittleMachineShop.com for a solution. We have arbors for 2MT short to 2JT, 33JT, and 3/8-24 thread.

Re: Shortening an MT2 arbor
a) because I didn't think
b) the drawbar version isn't that much shorter, I would still have had to remove 10mm or so, the tang made it easier.
