@flh801978 that thread adaptor is just what I could do with. As I also have a parkside lathe. Do you think you could make me one . I would like the thread it goes up to to be 1" x 8 tpi.

Looks like flh801978 has just found his calling in life! 
This is just a thought and is probably daft but M18 x 1.5 is very close to 3/4 x 16 tpi. There couldn't have bee a measuring error could there?

Unlikely. A continental seller would have them made to metric spec.

I have a parkside lathe and although it is a cheepy lathe so far it has been working well for me. It has an odd thread about 3/4 of an inch ish Wide and I dont know what the tpi is. But the next upgrade of lathe I have my eye on has a 1" 8tpi thread. So if I buy a chuck now to use on the parkside when I upgrade to a new lathe the chuck will fit.
I have sent you a email catsmother

Thank you flh801978 its lovely now to buy myself a chuck.
Hi everyone, sorry to bring this thread back to life but I've just got one of these parkside lathe's and was wondering if flh801978 is still willing to turn an adapter for me like the one turned for Cats_mother or if anyone knows of an adapter/chuck that would fit my spindle.
I'm really new to this but having a chuck I can turn bowls on is going to be useful for my leaning.
Many thanks all

Sure can send me a message
That's brilliant thank you.
Not sure how to send a private message as new to the forum, also what thread do you recommend as this is my first lathe

I’m also in the same boat if flh801978 isn’t getting bored of this yet
If you are buying a chuck then i would recommend a record sc1 or sc4 then its a simple insert adapter and when you out grow the lathe a new adapter will make your chuck fit your new lathe

Cheers, I’m happy to do that, as long as I can get a decent quality chuck I’m happy!
