Hey guys-
My 10EE has the old-fashioned Monarch 5C nosepiece with the handwheel draw bar. The threads in the drawbar have finally had too much use and the last nine of its sixteen threads have pulled out (these are the threads that engage collets). I am not sure how it was assembled, and therefore don't know how to affect a repair. It appears that the threaded tube section has been pressed into the larger multi-OD end piece. If so, I am thinking I might be able to separate the two pieces, then cut threads into the other end of the tube and press it back together.
Does anyone out there have experience solving a problem like this? I have attached some photos (I hope I have, anyway; I'm not too experienced at this).
Jim
