Abstract
Disclosed is a workpiece collet mountable in a lathe spindle provided with a master stem on which any one of a set of workpiece stops may be mounted and which stem includes a support readily assembled to the collet repeatedly in a predetermined position. The stops differ in length and/or radius to accommodate workpieces of different terminal configurations. This permits one stop to be substituted for another with assurance that its outer end will be spaced a predetermined distance from the adjacent end of the collet when the master stem is reassembled to the collet. Both ends of the master stem are similarly threaded and finished with stop surfaces permitting the stem to be inverted and used to mount a selected one of the set of stops.
