Tool Question???

[Paul]

I'm looking for an adapter with a 3/8--24 thread on one end and a 1/4--28
thread on the other. This would allow me to use a standard Jacobs chuck on
my right angle drill. Surely some one must sell such a device. Since I
retired, I no longer have easy access to a lathe so I must now go tool
hunting. <G>

Thanks much

Makes them hard to use and keep a bit reasonably concentric. Look for
a Jiffy Chuck.....a three jawed chuck with a 1/4-28 mount. Heck of a
lot smaller and much more usefull in my dealings. Don't know of a
source right offhand, but I can check with our tooling guys when I get
back to work on Thursday. I'd be willing to bet that most of the
aircraft tool sources have them.

Drop into your local engineering shop. Sure they could make one up for a few
dollars. Not a big job for a cnc lathe.
