Paul I'm going to get a 6 jaw chuck and clean up the face plate to match. Just need to doing everything I can to tweak the Grizzly. Thanks for the great info.

First I like to thanks everyone for there input. Neil the 5c chuck and collet isn't going to work. Was thinking of getting the delrin emergency set and make my own. But you are totally right about the diameter range. I was going to get the ER40 in a MT3 for the tailstock for coring. I'm...

Happy Holidays to you and your family Brian
