Re: FOUR JAW CHUCK do like it or hate it 4
Understood, I've got round and rectangular. Works well for layout on my welding/cutting table.
But, please explain how you use it for indicating stock in the a chuck.

Soapstone is commonly used to layout "rough" tolerance fabrications in sheet and structural steel for torch cutting or non critical hole or other feature locations. Often, we would use it to layout fabrications on the shop floor. It is hard & rigid enough to hold up well as a "drawing" instrument.
It's like high class chalk and will mark off eccentric lathe-chucked shafts or other parts.
A rough & ready method at best.
The soapstone is quarried & cut to make many other things like sinks & wood stoves.
