Pass some my way . I have a locked up , stuck up chuck . Not on a lathe though , just laying around in the basement muck .
 
How many chucks can a buck chuck chuck if a buck chuck could chuck chuck :)

Beats me.
The guy sold me a disassembled Skinner with it. But, on closser inspection, that chuck hasn't been on anything in years, and it doesn't even fit the backing plate.

As for the backing plate and cleaning up the threads, on even more inspection it turns out that it is not a fit for the lathe. There is a 1/8" gap between the back shoulder and the plate, once the threads bottom out. That is what caused it to be stuck so badly. I'll get another video of the problem and how I remediate it.
 
What size was that thread on the spindle again ? I read it somewhere but can't find it now . :big grin:
 
I took a smallish chuck apart and I got stuck ! Can't remove the scroll . The whole thing is soaking in Evaporust for another day .
