Expanding mandrel for blind hole
Hi guys,
I'm looking for an off the shelf expanding mandrel that can be used to hold a bottle cap from the inside.
This is for use on a small lathe, without an enormous holding force.
What I envision is an arrangement where the expanding plug is pulled in from the spindle, like a draw bar.
Any thoughts on what I'm looking for ie what I should order? Alternatively, do I need to build something to do the job?
Thanks
Doug
