Unknown Collet Chuck for Myford Lathe

273 forum posts 95 photos | Can anyone identify this collet chuck and collet? The chuck is threaded for a Myford ML7/S7 splindle. The collet parallel portion is 0.960 ins outside diameter by 0.65 ins long. The overall length of the collet is 1.35 ins and the widest point is 1.28 ins dia. The collar of the chuck is 2.65 ins dia by 0.75 ins thick.
I've looked on as many tool sites as I can find but there is nothing to identify this item. Any help is most gratefully received. Thanks,
John |

I think it is a home made one, as it
looks very similar to one i made about 15 years ago from an article
in MEW Regards Richard |
