I need some help with identifing this rotary chuck and opinions on how to best get this chuck into service.
This chuck has been sitting in my shop for a couple of years, so I have decided to get it out and see if it is salvageable. At first I was not sure of the make due to the ID tag being illegible. With some research, it looks like it is a Yuasa! It is 8 1/4 " dia with a 2 1/2" bore. The table is smooth and locks into position with no problem.
Now the bad news. I do not have any chuck jaws and it is missing a handle. The chuck scroll works fairly smooth, but needs cleaning.
Is this a Yuasa? (now that I can view pic it sure looks that is what is on tag)
What brand of chuck might this be?
Can jaws be purchased for this chuck?
Is there other chucks that can be easily adapted?
Any help will be appreciated
