I have a 4 jaw chuck that I want to addapt to the tailstock. I willbe boring through 2" square stock to make fishing rod handles The chuch has 1"x8 tpi and 3/4"x16 tpi. What do I need to addapt this chuck to the #2MT in the Tail stock. I have a 1/2" drill chuck with a #2 MT.Is there a 1x8tpi or a3/4"x16tpi with a #2 MT dead center? I found one with a live center. Or is there a addaptor for 1"x8tpi or 3/4"x16 tpi that would fit in the 1/2" drill chuck? thanks for any replys. Keith
