It's a long shot but thought I'd ask, does anyone have an adapter to go from a 1" x 8 spindle to a 1-1/4" chuck? I bought a chuck and got the wrong size....

Thanks for looking Lou!
Select the adapter here. It's about half the price of the ones above.

What's the chuck brand? Can you change the adapter in it?

It's an Axminster. Direct thread.
@Tony In case you didn't see it, here's the a pic of the adapter that you need to choose from the link above. This adapter is very handy for someone with two different sze lathes (mini with a 1" and full size with 1 1/4" spindle). All my 1 1/4” chucks work on either lathe now. If it doesn't work for you then maybe we can make a trade.

Thanks Karl. I'm actually working with them to ship this one back and get the 1" that I need. I am goung to get an adapter that goes from a 1-1/4" to a 1" because I'm doing a demo at our club and the Powermatic there is a 1-1/4".
I am see. You needed the opposite direction. Only problem with those will extend the chuck further away from the headstock which isn't as stable as the direction I thought you needed. Either way having both adapters is handy for situations like this. If you didn't want to do ship it back then I'd buy or trade for it.
