I have a D1-4 spindle on my lathe, and several chucks, collets,
faceplates etc to suit. So the plan is to make my 4th axis with a D1-4
face so that I can use the same workholding, transfer work to the mill
direct from the lathe, and use the lathe spindle to centre work in the
4-jaw chuck (as centering a 4-jaw on a mill 4th axis is properly
tedious.)
