      Having bought a 5c spin index I am making a faceplate for it with a 3/4 ” shaft”to fit the collet..Work can be attached to the faceplate for accurate marking out..
      Except I have not yet discovered how the work /collet turns! No amount of you tube has revealed this yet .

          If what you have is like mine then there is a clamp screw on top that needs to be released and a pin in the disk at the collet end that needs pulling out. There is a retaining ring at the other end that may need adjustment to stop it binding on the body of the indexer. There are videos on improving the squareness of the Base that may help if you find them.

          BasementShopGuy did the videos I am thinking of.
