Old Chuck--repair or dump?
Hi Guys,
I was scratching through some old junk the other day and rediscovered an old drill chuck,which cam in a tin of rusty odds and ends. Since I'm looking for things to amuse me and I've made any lathe tools I have had waiting for inspiration, I wondered about getting this working again----or should I just throw it in the bin.
It screwed apart easily enough but I cant see any way of separating the chuck into two pieces, to get the 3 jaws and the other fittings out of the body.The hole at the back is far too small to get the fittings out.
I suspect there should be a bent wire spring for each of the three jaws and they are missing (the jaws just rattle around)
Any ideas how to get the jaws out and what the wire springs might look like?
Thanks everyone who are willing to offer advice
warm regards
