Thanks brother! Have fun trying to find stuff that is 1MT. Slim pickens compared to the 2MT stuff that is out there.

Rockler did have a 1MT pen mandrel though.

And I found a spur center and live center on amazon:

It looks to be identical to this model Harbor Freight lathe, which, iirc, has some kind of odd spindle thread size (I want to say 3/4" × 10 TPI, but not 100%, so Goggle around or maybe someone that has one will chime in), so you may want to pick up one of these adapters that will take the thread of your spindle on one end and then have a more common 1 × 8 tpi on the other. That way you'll have an easier time finding additional faceplates and chucks for it.

The only other major part I see missing in addition to the tool rest is a drive center/spur center, and it looks like you'll need the size to be MT1 (Morse Taper #1, refers to how big the taper is that fits in to the spindle. MT2 is much more common, but you should still be able to find a good amount of MT1 parts).

Take the faceplate off when doing between centers work, and any other questions just ask or come on by /r/turning.
