Enquiring Minds Need to Know

He who dies with the most Chucks wins.
I have 3, a long way to go.
How far could a wood chuck chuck a 12" 4 jaw chuck?
 
Kind of looks like a machinist Christmas tree to me just needs some popcorn garlin and lights:cool:
 
Darn it! Now I have to try it out. I've got a 10 1/2" 4-jaw, all the way down to some 3" chucks, and then a whole fleet of drill chucks.
 
I chucked this up in the lathe this afternoon. Didn't drop any on the bed. Nine chucks, including four 3-jaw, three 4-jaw, one 5C collet chuck and one 1/2" drill chuck. I later realized i could also have used a tailstock chuck instead of the centre.
