    Spindle Lock For The Milling Machine

    In this video I make a spindle lock for my RF32 milling machine. Without a spindle lock I need to use two spanners to tighten and loosen the ER32 collet chuck. While both hands are holding the spanners, the tool bit is not held and sometimes falls from the chuck.
