While working on my rotary indexer I discovered my 6" 4 jaw would not hold a 3.5" diameter plate squarely to the centerline of the lathe due to jaw wear so I decided to use my newer 5" adjustable 3 jaw chuck. Needing to make adjustments I went to Hobby- Machinist looking for instructions. When I got on board there was Mr. Pete222's video just waiting for me. His demonstration centered on the same brand and model of chuck as mine "Buck Adjusta tru." His instructions and pictures taught me how to correctly adjust the chuck, I had tried several years ago but was unable to make any adjustments so it has been used as a standard 3 jaw chuck. Following Mr.Pete's instructions I got the piece to within 0.001".

The website has listed most of his videos on machine work and I appreciate the effort they went to, thanks.

Have a good day

Ray
