Hi I’m a carpenter and love working with wood I love wood turning and making furniture in my spare time I’m Irish living in the uk

anyone out there would know where I could source left hand or reverse cutting wood bits and left cutting mortise bits
I have a mortise attachment on my Kity 439 and the chuck runs in reverse so any help would be greatly appreciated

Welcome
Surely it would be easier ( and cheaper ) to fit a reversing switch to your Kity 439 providing it does not cause any safety issues with the main machine.
If it's a three phase machine the job is really simple. If it's single phase, you may need to check whether it is possible to reverse your motor.

Maybe a little simple of me but I found a couple by searching slot mortising bit left hand. You should be able to dig up more the same way.
