    Winky thanks for another invite into your shop. They're always appreciated and enjoyable. A couple of things though.. I'm one of those in 'Camp Shoulder' when it comes to its importance. The tenants of that camp dictate that the back plate should be bored for a precision fit to insure repeatability when mounting the chuck to the spindle. Unless I'm missing something boring it for precision fit can be done subsequent to threading. to facilitate test fitting.
    My other observation was the nifty indexer you made. I'm going to make one too. For those without one "Transfer Screws" come in very handy for accurately center punching those holes. They're sold but nn a pinch they're easy enough to make in a relatively short time. .
    Thanks again.

      I always aim for a good fit but I think the treads are self centering. This chuck was about .003 over but I'm usually about .001 over. Scott Logan said the same about a thread mount. That doesn't make him right but I do respect his opinion. I've had problems with the transfer screws but I suspect it was my drill press quill. I've since adjusted the quill but its not perfect.

  • @ronwilken5219
    @ronwilken5219 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    You could correct the runout of the chuck body by taking a few thou off the register on the backplate, re-assemble the chuck, and snug the bolts but not torqued. Test the runout and soft hammer the chuck body in the direction needed. You'll be able to nullify any runout to the limits of your patients. Tighten the bolts and check again.
    Then, test the runout in the jaws.I'm not sure if they're numbered, but they should be, so they go back in their respective slots. Try different combinations to establish where they were ground in at the factory. Once you establish the best combination, mark the body and jaws appropriately.

    • @WinkysWorkshop
      @WinkysWorkshop  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I was going to do as you suggested but after looking at the runout a little closer I realized the jaws were an issue. When clamping inward the runout high side lined up with number 3 jaw and when clamping outward it was 2. The the other jaws (external) were similar but the high jaw was a different number. Basically I didn't want to have to adjust the chuck every time I changed jaws so I ground (actually cut) the jaws level.

      I was thinking about turning down the register a little and moving the chuck body off center. Another comment suggested removing the plastic chip guard over the scroll and inserting back plate into the chuck more. If I do this I might have room to install set screws to adjust to center

    Nice job! That plastic cover on the back I presume is just to keep the chips out. As the new backplate will do that for you, I think I'd have taken it out prior to boring out the middle and left it out. You could have made the backplate register a bit deeper then to get the chuck a hair closer to reduce the overhang.

    Pardon me for being philosophical here. Re: People saying you can't bore that out. Imagine for a brief moment the nay sayers always having their way. Innovation gets rigidly restricted to established paradigms. And what if this applied for the past 1000 years? What would the world be like today? Safe to say we wouldn't have cars. Or, or, or ...........
    Anyway, nice work, Even if you have compromised the integrity of that chuck which was undoubtedly made to the very highest ASME standards that the jobber shops of China rigidly adhere to. (I better check my coffee for sarcasm additives)

      @WinkysWorkshop  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Ha... I agree 100%. I've always pushed the limits within reason. I worked for a printing company most my life and there were some people that would rather live with a poorly running machine than to try making it better. The logic was that it was running and you might make it worse while attempting to fix it. As time passed we got updated machines that were much easier to run but the people that were afraid of change stayed on the old machine eagerly working the ass off to avoid change. The last 15 years before retiring I was doing an engineering job (without a degree) designing machine modifications in problem areas. It was a lot of headaches but also fun.

      You are absolutely correct. I just messed up. I actually run it to the back side sometimes but the way I did it was wrong. The threads are pulling the carriage. It's amazing but it worked well. I guess the carriage has enough weight or resistance. Good catch!

    @daveticehurst4191 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Winky, a Chuck Backplate should be cast iron. It is not a good idea to have steel on steel with the lathe spindle, it can gall up. I do not know of any chuck manufacturer that used steel back plates. Take care using it and add a small amount of lubrication on the spindle thread when screwing it on to be sure you can get it off again. Regards from Australia.

    • @WinkysWorkshop
      @WinkysWorkshop  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hello Dave, well in this case I'm going to have to disagree. All my chuck have steel back plate and have had for about 10 years. I've never had a single problem. Bison sells thread mount high strength steel plate as well. Steel is much stronger than cast and performs much better on a smaller threaded spindle. I've had threads break on cast back plates. Probably low quality plates but never the less, steel will never break.

      @@normesmonde5332 Generally speaking Dave has some good advice and others have said the same about cast. Cast generally has a vibration absorbing quality and in some cases it might be a better choice. However, to me, this means the cast iron has to be compressible. Years ago I had a Shars 6 inch chuck and cast back plate on my Logan and it chattered bad. I put a 3 foot x 1.5" bar in the chuck and pushed down on the bar. The chuck actually moved away from the spindle register. I replaced both with steel back plates and the chatter got substantially better and the bar test was also much better. Both a 4 jaw and 3 jaw Shars 6" backing plate failed at the threads so this may be a quality issue more than cast vs steel ALTHOUGH Bison chucks confirmed that their steel back plate were stronger. One Shars plate failed at 7 month and the other at 1 yr. Shars would NOT stand behind them and I don't hesitate to throw them under the bus. I do not buy from Shars!
