I have a small workshop, so my lathe is small and has MT1 or morse taper 1 in the headstock. Collet blocks for this size are hard to find, as are reamers to make them from metal.
These aren't going to cope with heavy crushing loads, so be mindful if you use them in a mill or bench vise. Consider increasing infill if you want to put the pressure on.
























If you see value in other morse tapers let me know and I'll make some. The maths is fiddly but not difficult.
