One can usually go to eBay and purchase an old Delta lathe 1/2" arbor that will screw on to a 1-8 lathe spindle. Where can you purchase such items new, particularly for a 1.25-8 spindle?

Could you explain more about what you are looking for?

Are you looking for an adapter with female threads at 1.25"x8 tpi and a male 1/2" thread with some particular tpi?

If so, what thread do you need on the 1/2" side?

I used to get such adapters from a company called Best Wood Working Tools, but I have not seen them in a while and I cannot find a website for them at the moment.

Woodcraft used to carry some adapters, but they clearanced them a while back.

Yes, thank you!

I have had very positive experiences buying from them in person and online.
