I had a drill as a kid and I wanted to take the chuck off.....I had not idea it was a left hand thread. I've always wondered how can anyone take a chuck off a drill......it burned in as impossible in my memories. tHanks for the cool video!
I have a very small Jacobs chuck with a morse taper. The mounting shank broke off and is stuck in the taper hole of the chuck. Stuck pretty good. Any ideas on how to remove it? There is 1/8" of the shaft protruding. Due to the construction of the chuck I cannot get through from the jaws end to punch it out.
Got it! Was able to drill and tap an #8-32 hole. inserted a cap head screw, secure that in my vise and pry off the chuck. It is a size "0" Jacobs chuck. :-)
An option would be to drill through the front of the chuck at the bottom where there Normally is a hole for a lock screw. Jacobs chucks are not hardened in the middle. Then use a punch to drive out the broken taper spindle.
Hello again Catus Maximus and Tiny Thank you for another Great Video 👍 Question for you, 1) Is possible to get parts for the chuck? 2) That seemed way too easy to come apart. Is that normal? Again thank you 😊
Great vid, Ty. I've had several chucks lock up but not break, yet (thanks goodness). Glad for your procedure, advice and opinion.

I have that exact chuck. It has outlived a drill press and 4 pnuematic drills. Ready for it's next job with a new chuck key.
Not surprising, those old US made Industrial Jacobs chucks will survive the apocalypse.
