lathe chuck needed.. getting pen making withdrawals

[mywoodshopca]

Drill press died on me so looking for a small jawed chuck that I can use to hold blanks on the HF mini lathe for drilling.

My lathe is MT#1.

If you have an old one around you want to sell, please drop me a pm or post here

Thanks!

what is the spindle? is it 1"8tpi eBay has perhaps what your looking for PLUS you will find as I understand that Lee Valley is clearing out their stock of Midi Chucks by Nova.

I have a few things in MT1 left over from when I had the HF Mini-Lathe. I'll float you a PM and see what you think.

ETA: Wait, I just realized that you want a chuck to hold the blanks. Sorry, can't help you there.

I wish I could get the HF one up here, but the last time I ordered something from them shipped to Canada, the shipping was more then the tool.. Wont be in KS until Oct of this year again
