I've just reconditioned a turret for a 70, and am adapting it to a larger lathe (pratt whitney 7") but upon
inspection the tooling holes existing in the turret now are 14 mm. Is this a common size or has this been
modified in the past by a prior owner?

All my tooling is 5/8 inch shank so I am tempted to bore this up to accept the tooling I do have rather
than attempting to find more pesky swiss unicorn lips.....

Thanks much - Jim
 
OK so after a while this project is finally done - and photos for those who are interested,
and my thanks to the information that helped from the folks here.

And the last few photos are included as well, note the turret holes were bored in place
for 5/8 diameter tooling.
