Very Easy Setting Method for 4-Jaw

<< < (3/3)

Deko:
Nice one Phil.  :thumbup: I might even get the 4 jaw out of the box it came in with the lathe. :palm: Had the lathe for about 2 years now and never used the 4 jaw, or the face plate.  I see you find the ER32 blocks VERY handy as well.

Cheers Dek. :med:

I have not found setting work in a 4 jaw chuck all that difficult but on reading this I made myself a second chuck key. I have just completed a mounting block for my vertical head that required centering a number of times. I was amazed how quick it made the job. Two adjustments were all that were needed to accurately position the work, 30 seconds and the job was done!

Good to see this thread bumped every once in awhile so new folks see it.  :coffee:

Doubleboost has a nice video of making the spare key as well.
