Bought a 18N and need to remove the arbor that is in it. Is there a thru hole in the chuck? Looks like there is a hole. I had it in a press and no success. Need more press? 2nd chuck has 3/4 16 threads, does anyone make a r8 arbor for it?
If there is not a hole visible in the chuck, you can drill one. Doing so will not damage the chuck if done properly. It is usually pretty obvious if there is a hole or just a dimple in the bottom of the chuck. You will be able to see the arbor through the hole, 1/4 - 1/2" deeper, using a good light.Bought a 18N and need to remove the arbor that is in it. Is there a thru hole in the chuck?
