Wes,
Yes, it is useful, but Iggy must accurately measure the spindle. I believe
his 10EE has a L00 spindle, not an L0, which is why my MT5 test bar does not
fit. Measuring the nose diameter will resolve this. Jarno and MT tapers are
close but not the same. If he has a 1.5" nose, he has a 12 Jarno.
Ultimately, he needs the MT3 adapter, but if he wants 5C collets, he will
need a 12 Jarno to 5C as well.

Iggy,
Do you have a mating MT 3 adapter?

I also suspect that Clausing meant that Iggy's Clausing lathe used a MT3

of
the Colchester series.

L0 taper, 13" swing, according to Clausing, my lathe uses a reducting
bushing of unknown OD to reduce spindle to MT3.

Is this useful?
