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

Thanks Richard, that would explain it!  I take it you made the collets as well - I can't find any off the shelf ones that would fit, and I only have the 3/4 one pictured.
