I used a MT1xJT6 turned the Jacobs taper(1) so a small bearing pressed on, made the body number (2)
so it pressed over the outer of the bearing drilled a hole number (3) so I can lock the bearing with a screw drilled and taped and can be used on the drive spindle,
Drilled 3 hole number (4) so the soft end number can be change for bigger or a mushroom end for bowls
