The Zebrano is a superb lathe but there are a few things...
The thread adapter, my design is in the video, I had it made by Christopher Carpenter Email:- 0f285e39-ff80-4090-a930-e27f94d9e3fa@crm.wix.com send him the picture from the video and mention my name and he can make you one.
16mm Female thread Bristol locking lever 110mm length:- ebay.co.uk/itm/284947307108
3mm Spring Pin:- amazon.co.uk/dp/B00SN3X95O
6.75mm Drill:- ebay.co.uk/itm/201719974263
The Tap that worked:- zoro.co.uk/shop/tools-and-machining/hand-taps/8-0x1-25mm-hssgt-straight-flute-plug-tap/p/ZT1157735X
If you don't have the drill bit, and a good quality 8mm tap already, it probably won't cost you much more to get it done at a local engineering place, if you have all the kit it is very easy to do.
Thanks for watching.
woodturners.uk worth a look if you are a UK turner who wants a website.
