M33 3.5mm thread extension

[seventhdevil]

does anyone know where i can get a thread extension for an m33 3.5 thread as i wish to do some deep bowls and could use the extra reach to hold the inside whilst i turn the underside.

Not sure what you are looking foe Steve

Steve,
Try the Toolpost at Didcot, if Peter hasn't got one he may know someone who has or be able to suggest an alternative method.

found one but it's a bit expensive for what it is in my opinion.

over £55.

That's not a bad price for something like that.

You could contact a local engineering workshop, and ask them to make one up for you.

I got a guy to re-thread a old Multistar chuck body for me and make an adaptor for another Multistar body and I think that cost about 60.00 but the adaptor was nowhere near as meaty as the one your looking at.

Oh, I get it, I think.
Could you not turn a wooden mushroom type thing to go in the chuck. A sort of a jam check ?

...like this, Graham/Steve....I turned this mushroom (Dolly?) many moons ago and each time I re-use it, I just skim the face to true it up.....it works a treat for reversing deep bowls, especially natural edged ones that won't mount any other way.

Yeah.... not sure I would have used such a nice bit of wood though.
