i appears that even though they say it is means specifically for that lathe, it doesnt match up and the adapter plate is another $50... here is a pic of what i was talking about with the short stock, its about 2" long and 1/4" dia... its not the best pic, but you can see that a bunch of big lathe parts dont fit together very well to turn small parts... i should also mention that i was not actually turning that piece, because it is just sitting in the chuck....
and this last one is how i converted it into a "milling machine"...
