Drill/Mill Spindle brake (RF30)

[irving2008]

I was born with only two arms ;)

It just means I don't need to use two spanners to tighten/loosen the ER32 chuck (especially useful with a 13-12 collect and a 1/2" drill 'cos the *ing thing keeps dropping down onto the work before I can get the collet closed down onto the bit)

Excellent idea Bill.. I was struggling today to hold the spindle still, the chuck in the quill and do the drawbar up...

Yours looks suspiciously like my MD30...

It's a NuTool MD500-30, one of a huge number of 'RongFu 30' clones, which usually have '30' in the name somewhere to distinguish them from the much smaller '25' and 'square post 40' models
