Hi guys got my self a import mini lathe this week and have just noticed i have
two sets of the same jaws I checked the scroll on the back of the jaw and there
all the same both sets seem to be inside jaws
my question is, are jaws on a lathe mached to the chuck ( i got a feeling they are )
dont realy want to take the chuck off and send it back lol cost a fortune lol
and i have just dialed it in
cheers guys
It would have to be one hell of a chuck to warrant that. You are quite safe if they send the missing jaws :smile:
Self centering chucks just aren't that accurate. You can machine soft jaws to be accurate at one particular diameter or shell out for a Grip-Tru, but chuck accuracy is usually a lucky dip.
thats good then they can just stick a set in the post to me then
