Mounting a Chuck to a table

[Robert Love]

I'm looking for a way to mount my 1-1/4" 8TPI chuck to a milling table. I've seen the storage hubs that Glenn Lucas sells, but those have minimal threads. I'm looking for something like the white piece in the picture. But I need one out of metal. Any suggestions?

You can buy threaded mounts with a morse taper for mounting a chuck on the tailstock. Not sure how easy it will be to get a 1 1/8”, the most common and what Ive seen is 1 1/4 and 1”

1 ⅛' spindle was used on Oliver lathes . The best option,IMO, would be to go to a machine shop and talk with them.

I should add that the chuck will be mounted to the t tracks of the milling table.

Can you tap a 1-1/4" 8-TPI hole in a metal plate and use a short piece of threaded rod to mount the chuck to the plate? Then you can bolt the plate down to pretty much anything.

3' piece of threaded rod is $53 from Grainger:

Call Trent Bosch and I bet he can fix ya up. Tell him you want to bolt some milling table "T" nuts to the bottom of the adapter. He sells the adapter at this link.

See the $40 adapters at the bottom of the page on the link.

This is one I made to fit my Wilton PowRarm so I can carve on a bowl either on the bench or in my banjo. There not hard to make.
