Bison D1-4 5c Collet chuck

[Capt45]

Fellow over on another site has a Bison D1-4 Collet Chuck for sale, NIB, for $650. I'm tempted.

In situations like this, my son always says: "Don't think, just do it Dad!".

It goes for 965 USD new at Ajax as a set meaning including the Bison (Set Tru) D1-x backplate.

The chuck itself is 695. Hopefully your deal is a combo but I mention because a lot of sellers list the chuck only & people dont realize the backplate is kind of spendy. Supposedly Gator TruTurn BP's work but I cant confirm. I had good service from Ajax, happy customer, no affiliation.

OK; went back to buy the Collet Chuck and the listing was removed. It was listed on a Gun site and the Mod's pulled it because of a listing violation. Crap!!!

I guess you'll have to buy one of these now.
