A few years ago I picked up a couple Tapmatic 30x units on ebay for little money. ( can't happen today). I now have use for one but they have straight shanks and along with my keyless chuck they make for a rather long setup. I'd like to change to a MT2 shank but I don't know how to remove the straight shank. I know it is tapered into the unit. Anyone familiar with how to do it? Ozzie  |

| Absolutely not! It's a taper it says so on the shank. Anyway I got it off; put the straight shank in the vise, took a wrench that just straddled the shank and whacked it with a hammer. Not a pretty operation but it popped right off. Jerry |
