Eye have the same problem. My pillar drill measures 58 and the pack says it wurks ont 55 or 60 or 65mm. So eye plan to put a strip of 1mm stainless around said pillar drill to make up the difference. May or may not wurk. It will be trial and error.

I turned a collar but the drill itself was not powerful enough to drive it well. My drill is only a hobby one so hopefully yours is of a better quality :)

Mine is a Rexon BGM 50B luxus with variable speed using 3 pulleys and 2 belts. Cant remember the speeds oft hand. Its 22 years old but still int good working order. Eye think its got a slight wobble on the chuck so may need to replace some bearings. Eye have seen ont youtube other makes taken apart and repaired. It stands about 1 meter tall.

It's more about the power of the motor. Mine has a 1/4 hp which is rubbish :)

Mine is 350 watts so 0.46 hp. Will need to set the pulley speed right for best cut. Also eye plan to sharpen up the bits so the square section cuts into the wood betterer. Eye have been watching paul seller ont youtube sharpening chisels and stuff.
 
Eye gottid me documents through fer me aa break down cover renewal. When looking through the leaflets as eye chucked em out, eye spotted a silver disco 2. The aa is using it ter promote breakin down int europe so they can elp yer. They must have a stash of replacement chassis's and boot floors.

Eye dun't think eye would ever go back to a manwell. Eye get ter drive auto and manwell fer wurk. Different makes/models. Auto is luxury compared to manwell.
