I've got a 1977 Clausing Colchester 21 x 80 lathe with a D1-11 spindle
nose and a 3-9/16 spindle thru hole. The lathe was missing the spindle
Morse taper adapter. Does anyone know where I could find one &/or does
anyone know what the spindle taper may be? It is bigger than a #7 Morse
which I understand to be the biggest "standard" Morse taper.
Dunno! But if you have a 4-jaw chuck for that bad boy, it'd be a neat
project to make one. Requisite tapers could be turned with the compound.

Or just call Royal. They'll know the taper and which of their
adapters fits.
