Hi Everyone, I am a new forum member, and just purchased an antique drill press and need some help. the spindle is a single piece ending in a Jacobs #1 taper and came with a 0-1/4" Jacobs 1A chuck. I have done a bit of research online as well as this forum and cannot find if there is any simple way to adapt the spindle taper to a #33 Jacobs that will allow me to use 1/2" capacity chucks.
I am NOT going to use this with any lateral loads, just simple straight drilling. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks for your help!
Roger
