I wondered what those fiddly bits were in my kit.  They're the slitting saw adapter parts  :Doh:
I replaced the jacobs chuck spindle with ER16 straight shank chucks, then added an adaptor plate to fit in the QCTP.  I thought the bearings were a bit too close together so I combined two kits into one.  I use an overhead drive for power.

The price for the spindle is ridiculous. You couldn't buy the materials for that price.
