I've searched before and have never found one.
I had one that I think that someone made from a larger like 1 1/8 or 1 1/4"

+ 1 on what he said, ………...find a ''toughened'' rather than ''hardened and ground'' (which aren't all that hard anyway) and turn it down.

I know them as turret sockets - or capstan sockets.

Yup, what Limy says.

I have purchased 2" o.d. and turned them down to 1" o.d. using carbide.

I just checked my link and it is not working for me. It seems that MSC doesn't like how this website adds on affiliate information:

&affiliate_id=43737&click_id=2850949970&cid=af_q21 8&clickId=2850949970navid=12108514%204287945684

Now, this seems to work:
