    Default chuck making weird noise????

    Hi I just finished making a bowl. Turned the lathe speed downs to do the sanding. Well the chuck as I turn it around by hands sounds like there is like a ball bearing rolling around could this be the case? Is it safe to continue? Do you know what it might be. Hubby sick in bed so I rather not disturb him if I can get some help.
    Sorry I just stopped to find out if I can Does anyone know?

    Hi Toni,
    There is a large nut in the back of the chuck called the insert.
    It is locked in place with a small grub screw.
    I the grub screw comes loose, the insert will loosen and rattle.
    Tighten the insert, and then tighten the grub screw
