    Very kind of Steve to donate the chuck. Like the engines at the end.

    I love how you say I'll make up an adaptor and an hour later it's done (and it works!). That would be a two week project for me. Four if I was filming it! Have a good weekend Kev. ATB Matt

    Hi Kev. Excellent gifts from Steve and Nigel. The RUclips community is so generous. The chuck is perfect for your micro lathe. You must be well chuffed. 👏👏👍😀

      @MrFactotum it has been for many years unfortunately but it is worldwide. Problem is investors and shareholders want more and more of the cake until their is no point anyone making anything. And the 🇬🇧 has sold pretty much every industry we had. Probably best not thinking about it and keep on making your own things for fun 👍

    That looks very like a 👍Unimat Lathe chuck Kev, the Headstock and Tailstock on a Unimat Lathe are both 12 mm threads. I can vouch that the original Unimat chucks are very good. I have three collected over the years from various sources and they wear very well. When I first got my Unimat Lathe 20 years ago I damaged the back splines on one of the jaws of my original Unimat chuck by trying to hacksaw-off a partly parted-off round bar while the bar was still in the Unimat chuck on the Lathe. I was easily able to find spare jaws for the Unimat chuck at a Flea market. Used Unimat Lathe chucks and jaws often pop up on 2nd-hand goods websites , garage sales, etc. You can also buy new good quality knock-off 3 jaw and four jaw chucks specifically made for the Unimat ( they also have 12mm thread adapters with for Morse Taper fittings.) on the RDG Tools U.K Website ( They cost an arm and a leg at RDG Tools, which definitely won't suit you 🙂) cheers Paul
