I think this question is for you.
I think Unal is looking for a view to show how the two wedges are forced together.

OK, This is slightly off the threads topic, And it is in no way directed at anyone, Or against Mr.Ukazaks understanding of what or how anything was posted. I'm not typing this out to upset anyone, Or to point fingers at all.
When any question is posted here it has to be taken at it's exact face value and answered with only the information that's given by the person asking the question. I personally can't relate to Mr. Ukazak's very difficult shop supply problems because I haven't had to experience that myself. He most definitely has my full sympathy now that I understand a bit more.
But if you were to go back and read this thread right from the start, Two of the people here posted their thoughts going only by the information given. Knowing far more about Mr. Ukazak's personal situation would have no doubt changed anyones opinions and points of view right from the beginning. So to again use some basic logic, I personally don't see anything anyone needs to, Or should have to apologise for. They saw the problem for what it was, And due to the lack of information. They simply responded in a logical way. It's very rare that anyone here posts anything here that isn't actively trying to give the best information they have. I think from what Mr. Ukazak has posted since, He himself fully understands that.
Everyone is fully entitled to their own opinion and this is mine. You can agree with it or not.

OK Unal, hope these explain OK - the wedges are forced together by nuts and bolts through the bars either end, these are left "floating" as the wedges will move "up and down" as they're tightened - you could leave the bars out, but then you'd need to elongate the back part of the wedge and put slots through it.
Excuse my CAD drawing, knocked up over a cup of coffee before I woke up!
You may need to make additional split collars to take up any gap between the wedge and the spindle, unless you're very lucky first time! As you have a milling chuck in the spindle (and don't you just know it!) you should find these fairly easy to make :)
SO... in use, put the two wedges around the chuck's arbor (taper), bars at each side, bolts through and tighten away! I'd use large bolts, perhaps M12 or M16 to get plenty of force on the wedges...
Hope this works for you, worked well for me!

One More Thing...
Put a piece of wood or something on the mill table, if/when it drops out there'll be a chuck and wedges etc. falling on it!
