Having disassembled one to move. Make sure you can lock the parts down so they don't slide into anything during transport. I had to replace parts, because as heavy as they are they will slide during

What a useful adaptor. And a wide range of other useful devices as well. One point to be considered is how much weight and overhang are you putting on that little 618 spindle? After getting my 6 jaw
