The Arrand spindle is sought after and fetches a good price but they often appear on eBay and sometimes a bargain price will be paid. A spindle with a drive from a motor often using a round belt is another popular option. If you can find one and have deep pockets the the Quick Step mill is a nice tool for this sort of work.
Has anyone pout there made a robust drill that can be speed adjustable and plenty of torque? I have Steve Jordan’s ideas on YouTube but they seem unwieldy and top heavy. I have been searching the forum and web for a good toolpost drill design.Up to now I have used a Dremmel type drill to fit on my Dickson tool post on my S7 but as everyone knows they run too fast and don’t have the torque required to do anything but a small hole. I find myself often having to cross drill or drill on a pcd on the lathe.
