Thank you Adam, I just purchased a new lathe and switched to the 4-jaw chuck that came with the lathe. Not knowing and did not find in the directions how to set-up properly. And when I tightened back up I run them in snug and adjusted to accept the set bolt slot accordingly. When I tightened the D-4 lugs they were at the beginning of each of the marked area. I had to have knee surgery right after so have not actually ran anything on it. I will now go back and reset based on your directions. This was very helpful for me. Thanks again for sharing.

Nice - I watched one of our engineers change out the chuck on a Jet Lathe to bore out the hole on a 316 cable end. Took a little while to get the studs adjusted. I had fun standing back, and wishing I knew just a little bit more so that I could have done the job myself. But I can't think of too many things more fun than watching someone do a precision job well.

This video would have been a godsend by then. Just to add to the mix, I also marked my camlock positions on the spindle side and chuck body, as i found out I got different run-outs with different positions when putting on the chuck on the spindle. that last 0,01mm itches my brain.

Hi Abom, firstly I would like to commend you on your videos, you supply a wealth of information to the general public & the trade as well. I am a machinist of over 40 years as well from Australia, one thing would be good to inform your viewers of is the dangers of compressed air. A few years back I suffered a near fatal heart condition & on arrival at the hospital & inspection from heart specialists, they could find nothing wrong with my heart. It turned out to be free air in my bloodstream from years & years of blowing parts clean just as yourself and many thousands if not millions of people do as well. I had no idea that compressed air can enter the body & the blood stream & create fatal conditions, I had an airlock so to speak that was trapped in my heart & it couldn't pump the blood until it was cleared. Every time I now see people doing the same thing makes me shiver. Many heart attacks are caused by this without people knowing any different. Love your videos by the way, your a good teacher as well & the world needs good people like yourself. Cheers

However, the perpetrators may be liable to prosecution for forging documents or making false suspicions. In contrast, in the US this is usually 15 years in federal prison, in addition to fines and criminal forfeiture. The assumption may be that they don't get caught ... but this is a wet fever dream. We are all traceable. And if not, then one mistake is enough to let the hammer come down:) (And mistakes were and are made ... We can see one, up there, hehehe). Thanks for pointing this out, Wayne.

Adam, you should check out moving away from the blue shop towels to the Wypall L40 wipers. They hold together so much better and are much less prone to shedding fiber. They cost about the same per sheet, but come in many more form factors. I'll use one as a reusable shop towel 4 or 5 times before needing to toss it.

You agree? love your videos so much and always learn some thing, 👍👍👍👍
@Gottenhimfella

That condition shouldn't cause runout, it just means that the corresponding stud is screwed too deep into the chuck body. The line around the stud should be at about the same level as the other lines, either flush with the mounting face or just clear outside of it. The only effect will be that the clamping will not be as effective for that stud, so the stud will not get pulled with the same force. I guess if it's a chuck with only three studs, and one of them is really not under much tension compared to the others, you might get a slight wobble which as you get further from the chuck presents as radial runout.

Thanks for the beginning education video. Indeed a place to start but I wish you would have said that basic is “never” basic and acceptable should “never” be acceptable. My dad and grandpa told me that “acceptable” means you quit trying to improve and that should “never” be acceptable. I love how you explain and show different tooling and techniques. You are very good sir. They would show me how to do something. Take the measurements. Completely disassemble it. Hand me the tools. And say “now beat me”!

Hi Adam. Nice setup & Install. But ... I think I noticed 2 pin punch marks on the chuck being Installed. I have a fairly new Hafcol Steelmaster Lathe, which is similar to the PM Lathe. Generally on a new lathe there is a Timing Mark on the Spindle O.D. near the cam lock, whick is lined up on a chuck. When the chuck is mounted & you are satisfied with the bare minimum runout, if there is No Mark on the chuck place a mark on the chuck lined up with the Spindle mark, so that the chuck can always be fitted in the same location Hence the timing marks. Whether 3 or 4 or 6 Jaw chucks or even a face plate, all should be the same.

Thanks for the great information. If I could offer what helped for me on my D1-4 chuck. It only has 3 cam locks but should be the same on all. That is to rotate the chuck through each of the 3 possible positions on the head and check the runout on each. I found one position to be the best and made a mark on the chuck and head so I always put the chuck on the same orientation. Takes a little time but only have to do it once. Thanks Again.

I was going to say the same thing. The Chuck that came fitted to my lathe was actually marked from the factory to indicate the correct indexing during installation. With my aftermarket chucks I have found there is one particular position where it seems to seat better than the others. It is worth noting that If the marks on the cam lock pinions don’t land within the arrows, it’s worth taking the Chuck off and trying it in a different position before adjusting the studs. Sometimes it just fits better in one particular position.

That was Brilliant I bought a new lathe with the cam lock and when I started using it I had to put in the pins but I screwed them down as far as I could because I didn’t want any play on the there’d and when I put the chuck on the lathe I wondered why the marks only moved a little but it was tight so I set up the first turning job and started machining well I got a big surprise when all of a sudden the chuck fell out with the job still attached it put a mark on the lathe bed and hit the splash back making a hell of a noise and frightening the S#*t out of me so I slackened the pins back a little and it was a lot better but not correct BUT after watching your video I’m going straight to my work shop and set up the pins exactly the way you have shown me. I can’t thank you enough. How do you keep your chuck so clean it looks like new there are no scratches and stains on it so what do you use. Also your splash back on the lathe looks like you have just bought it so clean can you please show us how it’s done maybe another video. I live in Australia and made a few Model Steam Engine’s and I love it and I’m learning all the time thanks to people like you.Cheers Doug.
