R-8 to 30 NMTB quick change holder

[Martin w]

I don’t have a R-8 spindle. Good shape, with spanner wrench. Pick up Niagara preferred but I could ship UPS. I don’t know what shipping costs. $50 or trade for ?

Could you please post some more pictures, ideally with some measurements?

It reminds me of a Balas collet chuck

I didn’t have my phone to take pictures. I don’t think it’s the same as a Balas. Erickson is interchangeable I believe . This is R-8 to a thirty taper quick change.
Do you have a Balas collet chuck. I used to have, probably 500 Martin master collet pads in all sizes,hex round, emergency. I gave them all away. I think there are a few boxes left if you have a use for them. I think some are Warner & Swasey collet pads, same a Balas

Thanks. I have a Balas C16 collet chuck and collets 1”-2” by 16ths. I don’t know much about collet pads, and don’t know if they would fit. I would certainly be interested

I’ll dig up the collet pads and see if you can use them.

Let me know if they are any good to you. You can have them. I only have about 10 various sizes left now.Are you in Ontario?
