Morse Taper 1 to Morse Taper 2 Adapter

thingiverse

First "thing" upload. I added a Harbor Freight mini lathe to my work shop along side my wood lathe and other tools. Its a decent little metal lathe, the only frustrating bit was it didn't include a drill chuck for the tail-stock. My wood lathe DOES have a drill chuck, but it is a Morse Taper 1 while the metal lathe is a MT2. Using the taper size chart at Little Machine Shop, I designed this adapter to take a MT1 to MT2. I printed it out of PETG at 65% infill on a wiggle pattern at 140mm/second on the Artillery X2 using a raft and no supports, took it about an hour. Has been tested and it worked fine, not sure how long it'll last, but at only an hour to print it, if/when it does fail its not a big deal to reprint it.
