Lots of suppliers over here.....  Just a few I've used for bits and pieces over the years. Not saying any are better or worse, just these I have used  :)

I have no idea how much they would charge you for delivery?  But sending them an e-mail might help with that?

I'm going to assume that you are looking for a 4 jaw independent chuck? for holding irregular/odd shapes or parts off centre? I only mention this cause it'd be a shame to accidentally get a self centring one by mistake!!  :bang:




That's a nice mill you have too  :thumbup:

now for all the tooling  :bugeye:    Take your time and look around. See what others use and for what. And how they get around issues.
It's the best way to figure out what you really need and don't need too! (I've still got stuff I haven't used!!!!)

There are plenty of posts about the 'shop and tools that others have on here, you've possibly read through a few?



Hope it all works out. We can't have your fun held up for too long can we?   :(
