New old lathe owner, bought some second hand collets in an impulse buy, not really thinking about how I use/mount them in my lathe .
So how do I use these (I know i should've thought of that before buying :-) )? I'm thinking machine some kind of seating piece that mounts on the spindle with the same taper as the collets and then a drawbar to go through the spindle which pulls/seats the collets in the seating piece?
Any advice or pictures would be greatly appreciated, thanks, Christof.
