Bridgeport Spindles

[awerby]

Do they say "Bridgeport" on them anywhere? They don't look like R-8 to me either; but sort of like Universal Kwik-switch, which has the 2-lug design with snap collar. These take an air brake to operate, or they just spin instead of releasing. If you don't know what exactly they are, do the research before trying to sell them.

That is how this thread started. I'd be willing to try one but not for $350. maybe take the 3 off of that...and I dont own any bt30 tools.
