The 2.2Kw Chinese Spindles - Info, Setup and Advice + More

Dave, I'll check what's fitted to mine and have a look.
You stand a good chance of being in luck as I have just today throw two buckets of unions into the van to weigh in tomorrow.
Quite a few are new, probably a bucket full but got that much crap I have got to have a clear out.

What size pipe did you want to use as If they are what i think then you get a choice of 4mm pipe, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm and maybe 10mm

On my spindle they were a metric fine pitch thread, so not something I expect would normally be use for plumbing. I was once a bit too enthusiastic with the spanner when tightening mine, so I just made a new one on the lathe. Can you check what thread it is in your spindle?

Don't forget you also have to pay the electric bill, needlessly burning an extra 800watts adds up...

Just because your car has a 100hp engine, doesn't mean it's going to use 100hp worth of fuel all the time....
