Is there anybody here that employs a method to lock/ secure a morse taper fitting into the tailstock (ie. a MT Jacobs chuck, or a MT drill)? The purpose of securing it prevents it from pulling out of the tail stock quill whist backing the drill out of the hole under power.
I bring this up after watching a Lyle Jamison Youtube video whereby he modifies a quill.

It seems to me, that a more secure modification would be drilling and tapping for a set screw to hold the taper in place. I am wondering how many woodturners are familiar with this idea.
