Hello All, lots of questions, going through new Clausing 6300 lathe. More newbie questions.
The chuck I have, is a three jaw 6" chuck, Skand Chuckfabriks AB, 294142. When you look at the below image the thee jaws have bolt holes but are pretty much flush against the chuck face.
How difficult is it to locate chuck jaws for such a chuck? Is there a way to locate full chuck jaws both inside and outside mounts? Do you have to choose jaws from the same manufacture? Are bolt on jaws as accurate as full chuck jaws?
Also included is an image of the backing plate to the chuck. I have a 5C collet system on my lathe so the backing plate fits the 5C collet system.
Does anyone know what type of backing plate this is?
Thanks
Joe
