Topic tags/keywords: 12 pin mandrel wood lathes

Do any of you guys know of anyone that makes 1/2” pin mandrels or the expandable models for wood lathes? Either model could be straight stock or fitted with a MT2. I know there are persons out there that make this type of mandrel, just locating those individuals is the tricky part.

Thanks, Chris
