Review: No drill chuck for tailstock - Well made but no way to install a drill chuck in the tailstock. This makes it unusable for many operations. Very disappointed! I should have sent it back!! ## Features - 【4-Axis Machining + Quick Indexer】Features X, Z, Z1, and A axes. A-axis rotates -90° to +90° with 2.5° indexing accuracy. Comes with a metal quick indexer (electroplated) that positions within 10 seconds with digital display – perfect for multi-face and angle-feed machining without realigning the workpiece. - 【Crash Guard + Multiple Safety Features】Unique tool-chuck crash guard prevents accidental collisions.

Built to last. - 【0.02mm Precision Handwheels + Anti-Slip Design】X, Z, and tailstock handwheels feature electroplated刻度 marks (molded, not stickers) with 0.02mm accuracy.
