Hello remember this, yea course you do.

Well here’s the ER 25 chuck to go on it.

Roughed out +3mm


Reversed it in the chuck and cut the register.


Drilled and counter bored


Threading done


Cutting the taper


Finished

Yes you made a nice job of that ,,Makes me feel a bit guilty of buying things for the lathe instead of making things.
