Managed to aquire this yesterday a Lorch lathe with 24 collets i assume it is 6mm from the collet shaft measurement or do you go by chuck diameter which is 10mm .

Starting to get the gear but still no idea ;-)

The measurement is the shanks diameter i.e. 6mm or 8mm. I am not aware of a 6.5mm for the Lorch. When purchasing collects be aware not all collets are interchangeable as different makers had different pitched threads for their collets.
