      I don’t mean to take at you personally but let’s say I’ve been thinking this for a while and your comment seems an appropriate place to share my thoughts.
      He is a professional. With professional tools. I’m ashamed of myself buying tools as a hobbyist because I know I don’t have the work to use them enough to offset their carbon footprint. For everyone to have a full set of made-in-China power tools sleeping in a garage is an ecological nonsense. In the 12th century nails were really expensive and used sparingly, now the power drill is cheaper than a few hours of craftsmanship. Resources and energy are too cheap for the good of earth. Don’t you think ?

      😂🎉Hello I’m looking for my Father’s 1970 Nova, he passed away in 1998 & this car was put in storage by my uncle, his brother & he failed to pay the fee & subsequently the car was sold. This car was my fathers pride & joy, the first car he bought after he was hired at Bethlehem Steel in Lackawanna NY. It was stored in a warehouse on Seneca Street Buffalo NY. At the time I was only 19 & will never forgive myself for the loss of this car. Please help me locate it. The car was black with sparkles & the flames were airbrushed by a local tattoo artist named Mike Taylor of Iron Horse tattoo.​@@demonknight7965

    It would be interesting to take a tool that is already centered on the Monarch and swap that tool over to the PM and measure how far off-center it is with zero adjustment, then make this spacer thick enough to match. Then you could swap a tool from one lathe to the other without having to adjust it.

    Just a note on the bottom of the multifix, it is not just concentric circles but a spiral like a record. If it tries to spin, it actually has to displace metal and not just rely on friction. Much stronger.
