The standard hole saw arbors are very poor, in that they do not hold the hole saw securely, and so make accurate hole placement nearly impossible. I have a project in mind that requires that I drill reasonably precision holes in cast iron with a hole saw so I made up this little arbor. Much better!
While the chucks that came with the G0602 were quite decent the chuck keys were very roughly finished and did not fit well so the first thing I did with the lathe was make new ones. They are a joy to use and behold!
