Bit Quiet on Here

Bluechip - I made the chuck some years ago (seemed like a good idea at the time!) terrible time waster, you can spend hours just playing with to see what happens when you move one or other adjustment. Some details of it's construction here.
The chuck you mentioned was on the cover of ME Vol. 103 (1950)

It was a 7 part chuck built by Mr Tweddell.
It's a bitsa (like by bike!) built from a combination of Hartley/Plant & Ibbetson type mechanisms.

That's quite an achievment, it was a good idea. I doubt if many experienced model engineers would tackle one of those. Not me, that's for sure. Yup, that is the one from ME I was thinking of. So where did I get the 22 bit from ?  ::)

As for time wasting, so what? Looking back over my life so far, a good bit of it could be described by some as 'time wasting'. But it's my time, and I've enjoyed what I do.

I expect you're the same  :beer:  :D
