I was searching for more info regarding truing up 3 jaw chuck jaws and came across this comment under one thread...
"You may want to try corks instead of making special expander shims, worked well for me: http://hobby-machinist.com/index.php?topic=2495.msg16853#msg16853"
It doesn't lead any specific message. Does anyone know what he meant by using corks as means of putting tension on the jaws to remove play while grinding?
I've seen a few different ways to accomplish this. Using 3 shims seems the most time consuming. A using a ring to jam the jaws from the outside seems like the most simple solution. Does anyone have any recommended ways (be it corks or whatever) to accomplish this?
