need chuck and live center?

[Flootsie]

Sorry if this is put in wrong thread, and long time no see: I was in this group before and then life got busy...

I need a Jacobs chuck, screw on, 3/4" and 16 TPI, 5-20 mm capacity. I also need a live head, 1 MT, preferably the kind with teeth and a sprung point.

I cannot seem to find them in the USA--any suggestions?

Also, I need a reliable source for boxwood branches, 2" and bigger diameter, but length doesn't matter that much so long as it's at least 6" (LOL!). Yew is needed as well, sometimes, and arbutus (strawberry tree).

Thanks. I am going to find a beer somewhere and catch up a bit with what's been going on here...

The only place I have seen 1MT accessories is http://pennstateind.com . You might find something here: http://www.pennstateind.com/store/headstock-drive-centers.html

They have multiple 1MT Jacobs chucks. I have never seen a Jacobs on anything but a Morse Taper but they may be out there. They have some spindle adaptors that are 3/4" x 16tpi, if you find what you need in another threading.
