Hi Lads , I am well impressed at the response and well wishes , I have not had time to post the photos but will tommorow, I owe Dave a few favours as he spent all morning and a few hours yesterday..........good to have mates like that to muck in when times get tricky lolI would do te same but life is so much easier with this sort of arrangement :thumbup: So I am looking for a six inch backplate I think as probably not worth risking using this one again. Still a puzzle how this chuck and backplate have been used for years by me with no problem before after heavy turning too. I just saw Pete W's post ......I will look and give proper credit where due lol..........been panicking too much to consentrate :palm: Cheers Mick |

Thanks should have gone to Willie 'Highpower' from metalworking fun forum who said he had used the same idea of parting off right next to the end of rifle arrels and it had released the stuck threads just before it broke through :clap: Oz I have not got the answer mate , I was about to run the lathe more then tighten a touch more , I have read that after running 20 mins at top speed the area should just be warm. with all this spindle business my locknut and adjusting nut on the bearings had worked loose though, I do not have the special spanners and my nuts are a bi :clap:t chewed up too. I wil be trying to find out more about bearings and making spanners so will keep you posted. Cheers Mick |
