   Further testing needed ...

      I got the back plate finished for the 3 inch chuck and I'm a bit   
   disappointed at my initial testing results . I've measured .015 runout   
   on a piece of 1/2 inch stock that I'm pretty sure is straight . Might be   
   the jaws since the chuck body indicates about .004 near the face . These   
   are the inside step jaws and the clamping surface is not very long so   
   that may be part of it . I'll be installing the outside step jaws   
   tomorrow and checking them - it came with 2 sets of those , one which   
   matches the chuck s/n and one that doesn't . The inside step set I have   
   installed do not match numbers ... aaahhh , what should I expect for a   
   $10 yard sale purchase !   
      Actually , it may be as simple as regrinding the mismatched jaw sets   
   to match this chuck . I have a little time to play with it , got no   
   "other people's projects" in the shop right now .
