If it is anything like that, galling in the threads, broken thread piece, or unnoticed plug of swarf, force can only damage the area where it is located if enough is applied to break the parts free. Only by damage can it be freed. So if it is true, I would cut the backplate off, in hopes of saving the spindle. |

Don't forget that a thread is a wedge wound around a shaft, the leverage is like driving a wedge in between two not parallel surfaces, it can behave like a tapered cone on tooling . I would humbly suggest warming up and a dead blow on a piece of wood across the chuck. unless you get the end of the spindle red hot, your not going to damage anything. I doubt very much that there is anything wrong with the thread. An oiled thread can lock on like an oiled taper. Regards, Matthew |

Well Mick is it OFF yet we are all waiting to see who came up with the working solution so we can file it away for our own use ( those of us that have a threaded spindle nose that is ) Stuart |

I reckon Mick mixed up the oil can and the Loctite bottle when he 'oiled' it :lol: |

Andrew, on a serious note I have been considering some of the extra strong loctite retaining compound as a possible means to retain a threaded to taper adaptor conversion on my L6 spindle. Many a true word spoken in jest......OZ. |
