      From: muratlanne@gmail.com              "Snag" wrote in message news:vcn5gc$1n35p$1@dont-email.me...               Further testing having been completed the chuck has runout with all 3       sets of jaws of around .007" . Chuck body is more like .002-.003 . A       known straight 1/2" rod is not pointing straight with the ways ...       looks like it's time to set up the toolpost grinder .        So it looks like maybe a cheap chuck , though well made . Fit and       finish are good , everything fits as it should and the scroll moves       smoothly with all 3 pinions . Which brings me to a question - since       there's more than one pinion is it going to make any difference which       one I use ? Do I need to give 'em all 3 a twist when I mount a piece of       stock ?       --       Snag              -----------------------------              In the new Mongolian 6-jaw I cleaned up the scroll plate fit quite closely       on its pivot in the body, too tight until it was cleaned. I don't think it       could shift away from whichever pinion I tightened. Perhaps it might in a       worn chuck.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
