6 Inch-Self Centering Chuck

Dan,
I have it on the bench next to my lathe bench, look at it occasionally and shake my head. I haven't had the time to fool with it. First thing to do would be to true up the adapter. Then assemble it, determine how true it runs and then determine what to do. I am more concerned about getting my 3 jaw chuck mounted and won't have time for that for at least another month. I always remember people talking about how much free time people have when they retire. Maybe they were joking and I was too young to understand.
 
This has been a great thread. Thanks for all the help. The "1x8" Thread Tip was fantastic, really helped me with my search. I also like the tips on "Truing" the adapter flange if needed. Thanks
