So a while back there was a discussion about an adapter for 1" to 1 1/2" die holders. Jonathon has one, but it appears they can not be found again and we can't find the original thread.
I have one of the LMS die holders with an MT2 that has 1" and 13/16" openings. Now that I'm using a 14mm set a little bit, I'm in need of the 1 1/2" holder. I really don't want to buy one with a 3/4" shank like they sell on Amazon as that would mean I also have to buy a larger jacobs chuck to hold it and it wouldn't spin freely like I prefer. I'd rather find something or have something machined to adapt the 1" to a 1 1/2" for simplicity.
Anyone have a line on one of these (yes I know I can make one, but I'd prefer to buy one of the nice aluminum ones)? Alternately what are you using for larger dies?
