Title: Lathe chuck jaws
Post by: rdhem2 on October 29, 2012, 03:15:58 PM
Gentlemen;  Please give me a easy answer to a supposed easy question.  I have two three jaw chucks, both missing one of the outside jaws.  Where do I go, or what do I do, to find replacements.  Even if I have to buy a whole set of three.  One place is out of business and the other wants to sell a complete chuck rebuild, all six jaws, scroll and drive gear.  I can buy a new chuck for what they want for it.  Any ideas out there?           :scratch:
HELP
