I was at the junkyard again and I found a newish pipe threading machine.
I have no idea what was wrong with it but I striped it for parts.
Wondering what to do with the new found parts I came up with this idea.
Working with long parts in my lathe things can get flopping around.
I made an adapter and put this on the back end of my spindle.
It hold the long rods and keeps them from flopping around.
I tried it out... Works great.
