I've got a Jet Mini Lathe and would like to find some info on getting a drill chuck for it. Not only to drill holes but to mount some other things in it like this drill mandrel:

Hi Thomas
Right there on the same page you found the drill mandrel.
Thomas, I'm a closet Harbor Freight customer and I've had good service from their $9.00 #2 MT keyed Jacobs chuck.

Harbor Freight sells one for about $10. If you only need it for a few things now and then it is not a bad chuck.

Well, Gee! I looked and even did several searches for drill chucks and nothing came up on thier web site. I was wondering why they wouldn't have one.
I'll have to put together an order and get a few pen kits while I'm at it.
Thanks. Thomas Clark Harmony Hearts
you had to mention pens...
I've been resisting them for years... got a bunch of hardwood on a gloat but it was all 4/4 or thinner, so my wife bought out Penn State Ind. and got me into pen turning... what a PITA for 5 minutes of turning! *lol*
