I have the MicroLux lathe with its standard 3 inch 3 jaw chuck. Chuck has both inside and outside hard jaws, looks to be the same as the Little Machine Shop #1187. I need to hold a thin brass disk, 1/8 thick. Does anyone know where to buy (or how to make) soft, machineable jaws for such a chuck?

Hobby guy here so I need advice.
I purchased a set of Shars soft jaws for a 6" Union 4 jaw chuck I had laying around the shop. So I roughed out the pocket I need and I seem t be having a problem finishing it. I tried a carbide insert tooling, HSS and both seem to dull out quickly...
