I bought some blank chuck plates from http://littlemachineshop.com/products/product_search.php?criteria=chuck+&Search1=Search
but now i make my own. Http://www.lathe.com Scott Logan has some rough cut durabar that Logan makes their backplates from and they are reasonable but unthreaded.
http://www.tools4cheap.net/search.php has both threaded back plates and a back plate already in ER-32 so that will save a lot of work...Bob
