Firstly I'd like to say hello to everyone as this is my first post.

I bought a Pacific FTV4 (Lagun) last week with a lot of new tooling but unfortunately every arbor has a 5/8" draw bar thread where the mill has an M16 draw bar. I've already made a 5/8" draw bar to suit but changing them is a nightmare if going between metric & imperial. Those with an Nt40 equipped Lagun will understand.

So what I need is an NT40 collet chuck with a 5/8" draw bar thread to suit ER40 collets. I don't need the collets just the chuck.

TIA, Peter.
 
I have two collet chucks with M16 threads and one of them showed to be softer than the other, so this morning I bit the bullet & tried to re-tap it to 5/8" Whit.

Perfect result so my search has ended.
