    olderdan,

    Nice and handy for small holes and can be mounted quickly. I have a couple of 1/4" Supreme drill chucks that have never been used. Now I have a future project.
    Thanks for sharing!

    I achieve the same high speed drilling or grinding with either an air turbine or electric spindle mounted to the tool post.

    Hi Gang:
    I helped rebuild a multi station machine that worked like that. For some reason spinning the part and the drill tends to make more concentric holes??
