I have an 1 1/4" 8tpi to a 1" 8tpi female to male that I don't use . Fits on the 1 1/4 thread and has the 1" sticking out.
Cheap.
never try to be better than others just better than you were yesterday.

I would suggest checking with specialized woodworking stores in your area or even exploring online marketplaces that offer lathe accessories. It's worth reaching out to them directly and providing the specific thread measurements you need. They might be able to help you find the right adapter or offer alternative solutions that can work for your setup.
