From the Manufacturer
Live Tailstock Chuck Adapter-2MT tailstock mount, 1-Inch by 8TPI Chuck Mount. This unique adapter allows precision centering of spindles or dowels at the tailstock end. Also, it provides the ideal system for the mounting bowls for hollowing; after turning the outside of the bowl blank, turn a tenon on the bowl bottom. Then mount your chuck to the tailstock using this adapter; grabbing the tenon with the chuck while still attached to the faceplate. When the chuck and blank is remounted on the headstock, your bowl will be perfectly centered.

Bought this to have some adaptability in the way I mount or support wood lathe projects. Just used it for the first time ( non-golf season is when I do most of my lathe work ) and it worked well. I was a bit concerned that the bearing would be rough or it wouldn't be centered properly but both worries were misplaced.

Adapter did what I was hoping for. It helped to line up my segmented rings more accurately with colejaws on it and a 4 jaw chuck and the base on the headstock

With this rolling arbor adaptor I can now mount a 4 jaw chuck and either hold a part true from end to end, or I can make offset parts, works GREAT

This is a cool little device that allows you to install a chuck on your tail stock. I did this to turn thin balusters. By gripping two ends with chucks you effectively increase the stiffness of the baluster to a baluster 1/4 in length. You can almost turn the balusters with no steady rest. Of course the Steady makes things even more rigid.I installed a NOVA MIDI CHUCK on it and it has been working pretty well for me. One big plus is thatI don't have to center drill my wood for a live center.As far as quality goes it seems to be as good as any live center. My setup has a little visible run out, maybe 0.01" at most. I'm not sure if it was the chuck or the adapter since I haven't had the need to investigate it. It is plenty adequate for wood work. It will fit into a metal lathe tail stock but it may not be accurate enough for you??? It also has a nut that holds the bearing in that I had to tighten up. We'll see if this is a continuing problem. So I knocked off a star for those two issues.Overall Impression - It is a good value for the money and I would buy it again.
