Review on πŸ”© PSI Woodworking L5818 Lathe Headstock Spindle Adapter 5/8-inch – Shopsmith Compatible – Converts to 1-inch x 8tpi by Jim Dahl

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Works great with My Shopsmith

This adapter is well designed and precision machined to adapt a Shopsmith 5/8" spindle to a standard 1" 8 TPI lathe spindle. It fitted my Shopsmith Mark 5 (an old model from 1954) and fitted perfectly. On the other hand, it fits perfectly with the Teknatool lathe chuck I bought to go with it. The adapter is milled from a solid block of steel and is very well made.
