    Great Video! 25 years in the trade and your the second guy I seen that knows that these are adjustable. It does baffle some guys to think you can adjust a 3 jaw chuck.

    Mr. Pete: I've been watching your videos for years; that's how I learned to be a machinist. In 2015, I was pretty clueless, never mind such sophisticated nuances as a set tru chuck. Now many years later and an order of magnitude of competence better your video pops up at exactly right time. I just bought a six jaw set tru chuck from SHARS (couldn't afford the other guys which are 2 or 3 times as expensive}. Even at chineseum prices this was a pretty big purchase for me at about a grand including D1-5 backplate. Long and short is that I am very happy with it and glad I spent the money. TIR is repeatable to about 0.0002 or 0.0003. Thank you, once again, for all the first class training and education you have provided me and thousands of others.

    such deviations is why we use tolerances on the drawings, specially the geometric tolerances.
    In most cases of maintenance machining. the most of the time consumed to remachine a part is spent to align things before doing the corrective cut.
    very good video.

    Hey Mr. Pete, great video.
    I have one of the Pratt-Burnerd 6 jaw GRIPTRU chucks on my South Bend. Their adjustment system is actually a 3 jaw in a 3 jaw. There are 3 adjustment screws that bear against the backplate to center it. If you should see one at an auction, I'd highly recommend picking one up as they're a pleasure to use.

    I know this is an old video, but still useful! I just tore down a really gummed up 3 jaw chuck for my Clausing 11 lathe and discovered 4 little allen screws with button inserts under them. Figured out this must be what they are for. Now to go fine adjust the thing. This one is an old Pratt Burnerd chuck with the 3 pin camlock quick change feature.

    on my job I ran a Mazak V miller with a 4th "c" axis. it used this type of chuck. it was essential to that work. this was about an 8" chuck. sometimes the chuck had to be removed, and a big arbor put it its place . only way to adjust the location of that arbor was a lot of care and patience.

    The Pratt Burnerd chuck on my Myford only has three adjusting screws. It take a little getting used to, to true up, but it goes fast once you know what to do. Also this type of chuck seems to go out of adjustment after a lot of tuning. I do it about once a month or whenever there is a lot of work that I have to do with removal and replacement. They are a nice extra for a lathe.
    Again thanks for showing and explain the other chucks that have the same feature.

    What holds the chuck back into the tapered nose on the Hardinge ?I would think turning the chuck the way you did when you mounted it would be the only way to go, in use the thrust would then be tending to tighten into the "bayonet" groove.

    I had a federal indicator like yours that got crushed by a machine. I sent it in and it came back like new.

    Mr. Pete222. You seem to be a chuck expert. Did you ever come across a 3 jaw scroll in a 3 "jaw" independent chuck kind of design? I just fixed on up that came with my vintage Karger lathe. And I think it might be very old and it could be Dutch since the writing on the chuck is in Dutch. Unfortunately I can't find anything about its origins. Being Dutch myself this chuck has me interested. There is a video about the chuck on my channel in case you got interested as well :)

      Back in the '80's I worked in a shop that did proof machining of forged oilfield flanges and valve bodies , where I ran an old Bullard VTL , it had such a chuck each of the 3 jaws were individually adjustable and when you pushed the chuck close button ALL 3 moved in together.

    So whats the advantage of using this instead of just a regular 4-jaw chuck? Seems redundant

    U.S Patent No. 2,639,157 to James Buck, et al., expired in 1970. That's how a host of imitators came into being.

    it's not an Arkansas socket wrench. It's known as a several 16ths . Or a Swedish nut lathe. lol

    Good Demo, mrpete. However, the accuracy of any scroll chuck is still at mercy of the accuracy of the geometry of the scroll. That indication is only fully reliable with that diameter of work piece. Any larger or smaller diameter may indicate quite a different run-out, due to variances in the scroll. I feel the "Tru-Adjust", and others like it, are most useful in production work, where one or more operations are preformed on several items with regularity, and these chucks are not a "cure-all" for all off-centered 3 jaw chucks. That being said, they can be useful, but for better accuracy in the home shop, the good 'ole 4 jaw is much more practical. Thanks for your fine & informative work. Keep up the good work, I really like these videos. Dick

    • @lbochtler

      @@ellieprice363Worn out spiral cam grooves is more likely, as the runout varies with the work diameter, but is repeatable. Problem is, i cant get the chuck apart, screws that should make the cam plate removable, seems either brazed in, or otherwise firmly connected to the chuck. I have yet to get it to budge.
      I dont use the 3 jaw much, i mostly use a face plate / 4 jaw chuck, and collets. The 3 jaw would be nice though.
