Hi All
Hope you can spare the time to help me
I have a chester MF42B lathe/mill
I wish to buy an er20 collet holder for my mill. Im very unexperienced in this area and therefore would like your help and advice in what one to buy
I have removed the taper.. from the headstock (picture attached)
dimensions are as follows
A 20.1
B 24.5
C 83
D 15.8
E 14.7
F 30
the thread that bolts into it, is 11.8mm and seems to accept a m12 thread
ive read about morse tapers, and am assuming its a #3 morse taper
so, do I buy one of these?
