I have a very old Bridgeport mill with an MT2 spindle. The tooling that came with it when I bought it works great, however, some of the additional pieces I've bought don't fit correctly. They seem to have a little shorter shank and they bottom out on the collar before the taper is fully seated. It's almost like the taper is too far up the quill. Is there an adjustment or tip for adjusting that or do I have to look for specific MT2 holders?

Thanks,

Larry

Did you buy the other tooling new? If it i used is it possible it is not truly 2MT?

I don't know if the M head[i assume it is an m head] came with any other tapers like a B+S or something....
