Dale, nice find. Make a video of you tracking down the guy responsible for such neglect and you torturing him slowly. I'd come back for that one. You are going to like that chuck.

The chuck turned out very nice Dale!! I wasn't too crazy about seeing you hitting the jaws with the hammer, but seeing as how you are going to grind the jaws anyway we'll let it slide this time. Thanks for sharing that with us.

Watching you lay out the holes on the back plate brings me back to high school machine shop class..sum 35 yes ago . Although I did not go I to the machine shop -chef instead- still brought me back to Mr. Johnson's class. Had so much fun in that class great video thanks for sharing.

Thanks Dale. I can't believe how nice that turned out after seeing what you started with. Great job, nice addition.

I agree, glad you're back Dale

Cool, a restoration......... Gonna put it in this rubber bucket... Wait a minute, MUST HAVE ! gotta find that bucket now!!!

One more thing to mention, jaw installation can actually begin at any slot. As long as you start with jaw #1 and install them in numerical order, it will work just fine.

i regularly use it! thank for share!

i just finished my 200mm 3jaw röhm chuck...took 1month to take it apart carefully enough to keep the tolerances....works perfect now and its super accurate :)

Good to see you doing cool stuff again Dale ...hopefully you can stay put in this shop for a good while.

That stuff you soaked the chuck body in works well. I've been smacking my chucks and vises with an old chunk of copper for 30 years - they continue to work just fine.

Always a pleasure to watch your videos.

Am surely looking forward to seeing you grind in the jaws! Thank you.

Awesome Dale, great to see you back and great project. Looking forward to the next stage. Kindest regards. Joe.

Wow amazing derusting agent. Loved the video very infornative.

As long as your not fixing a computer...hammers are great! Thanks for sharing Dale!

have missed you videos, hope your back in the groove

Look forward to seeing seeing the next one

Very good

Thanks Dale, well done.

welcome back!! great video, cant wait to see teh next!!

I would agree with J Grana as you should know better than using a Body Hammer and Pick to hammer on the jaws. A quick tip, use either copper or brass metal to hammer on hardened jaws fella. Good Day too.

I subbed pretty cool Restorations that you do and you give good tips on Machining

I am glad You didn't hit it with a hammer 😂 great video as always 👍

Hi Dale. Nice six jaw. Great save

Chuck looks amazing

Dale, It's a Burnerd! I have the same chuck on my old Colchester Master. it is an amazing chuck (mine is at least) super tight, as repeatable as a scroll chuck can get. Nice find!

Nicely done Dale!

Great video. Love the shot with the natural sunlight. You must love your new workshop. Cheers! : )

Beautiful work.

Great score. I’m looking forward to the jaw grinding.

I'm totally hooked. You took what seemed to be impossible, and made it a reality. Well played, sir. You can count me as a new subscriber!

very good work

Es la primera vez que miro un Chuck con seis muelas de ajuste... Felicitaciones.

Great job mister.

Nice video, Great energy. Loved it.

I'm really suprized you don't hammer with a brass /lead something softer than steel.

i love the 6 klaw,, looks so pro en making the lay so asom. olso the restiration is good... tanhs for the movie. goodluck ! gr

*_Love That Thumbnail!!_*

TIG torch, the best easy-out in the shop👍

Great job!

I think I'll start buying shares in Evapo-Rust looking at my old tool collection. Don't be afraid to leave things soaking for a few days if they need freeing up but it will darken or black some hardened steels and leave shadow lines if not fully submerged in one dip. Doesn't melt or harm plastics and whilst not pleasant, the smell is very tolerable, unlike a cheaper brand I tried that also leaves a white salt build up if left for weeks but that was my fault. You get a silt residue from grit and dirt or paint flakes and grease but it separates when left to stand or can be filtered through a funnel and paper towel or a coffee filter for re-use.

I want to teach me, I love this work passionately and you are skilled

So glad to,see,you back making videos again. Great video. Thanks for sharing.

Great 👍 job love ❤️ your videos your almost there at 💯 thousand subscribers.from Canada 🇨🇦 Tony

Awesome video

Great job Dale, turned out really good and will come in real handy I am sure..... watch out Tom!!! LOL, good to see you guys get inspiration from eachother like we do from you.

Well done!

Enjoyed. Thanks.

Thanks for the video. You did not lie when you said that you are not going to hit it with a Hammer. (in the singular) You hit it with several different Hammers.

Looks like Pratt Burnerd to me. They have 6-jaw chuks with these alignment screws and the backing plate looks very similar to the one I have on my 3-jaw Pratt Burnerd. A nice find!

It's a pratt Burnerd chuck made in England, I've had a couple three jaw chucks with the same tapered pins and the three tabs on the main casting that you said has wear it's not wear they are machined like that so the tapered pins have more contact area. I also have a 4 jaw independent chuck with the same Pattern Pending written on the face.

man master of his craft

Nice work

Love restorations

Awesome!

enjoyed as always

ever herd of a copper mallet and a brass punch to remove the jaws,good restoration though

Evapo rust did an amazing job

Good Job

i like Restoration

Nice hammer!

No chastisements from me. A body shop is missing a dinging hammer. LOL The chuck looks great. Now you got me looking for a rusty 8" 6-jaw. Always interesting.

Nice job on the restore. Unique chuck, never seen that type of adjuster. Ok, the Applause has to go.

Unless the jaws are chowdered up, you shouldn't "grind them in", this is a set-tru/adjust-tru/blah chuck and those 3 tapered bolts are for adjusting the chuck to run true. Chuck up something that is 1/2 the capacity of the chuck, then adjust the chuck true to that round part. For really fussy tight tolerance work, you'd adjust those to get right on the money.

Great video, the chuck turned out really nice. It looked like both mount adapters were cast iron. Can you make a video on machining cast iron? I've done a bit of it but I find that getting a good finish on the lathe can be challenging.

looks like a pratt burnerd "griptru" chuck. Not sure the adjusters will work with countersunk screws holding the backplate on, as they will always pull central. Usually have cap screws with a bit of clearance to allow the backplate to move

So when do we get to see the new shop tour and new purchases? Great video Dale

Nice job, makes we wish I hadn't thrown out my independent 4 jaw that flooded in Katrina. Thanks for the Tips & Tricks, I'll keep those in mind. Hope you make the 100,000 mark. I'm just coming up on 3K on my channel, LOL. Best Wishes & Blessings. Keith Noneya

Great video! What advantages do the 6 jaw have over the 4 jaw chucks?

not bad,I use 6 jaw chuck like 2 jaw chuck selfcentering,this one looks like new!!

6:28 Tasty chuck key you got there 😉

Also I like your hyperactive video editing

Nice video was I appreciate I one question which liquid was used to clean the chuck which was kept over night

Tip number two, you use graphite to lube the jaws as grease will let chips clog up the chuck again.

Great video on saving and mounting a chuck. I would like to see the video be longer so as to not have the video be mostly on fast forward. Just my 2 cents. Keep up the great content!

I need that backing plate!

Great job👍 Hello from Ukraine

About broke my heart when you cut the L1 taper threads off. That is what I use I was sitting watching think you would build another backing plate and I would hit you up to see if you wanted to sell that on.

Still better to put them in the exactly same place where they come from jeah and that hammer thing lmao. Stil happy to see it alive.

Buy or make a brass hammer! What!?, you just like the "ringing"!? lol Also, a chuck, turntable, or machine vise, you just take that sucker and dunk it in your Safety-Kleen Reservoir. Leave it overnight! You don't have a big caustic mess, a lot less expense, and it works great! Just like penetrant you know!? You had the idea, whether you're keeping that backplate or not though! Remove it and disassemble from the back! I've seen guys beat around on the chuck jaws and try to run them out before taken everything else apart and they end up beating their scroll up! You got to think that a six jaw is going to to experience a lot less wear, because in normal operation the push on those gear teeth and scroll etc. is cut in half! Great job with this chuck! Man you saved some bucks there!, and a lot of people would turn their noses up at that thing!!

Very nice. Was it a L1 taper.?

Oh come on Dale, less yackin and more wackin. You know you can't get watch maker precision with out using a six pound mall (Irish Micrometer)! Great find by the way and nice job on the video. Using that spray lube kind of reminds one of the mimeograph sheets they use to hand out in school...maybe that's why my projects go a' rye.

Awesome, I have a smaller lathe chuck I want to clean up. Any tips for how to keep them in good shape after cleanup?

Hi Dave, I don't know if it's intentional or not, but you might be on to something with the fast pacing of the video! Keeps it from being another boring 'cleaning and restoring' video! Love your video as always!

A six jaw came with my Grizzly 4003. (Well, its actually a Central Machinery, but its the same one). Its a little rusty, but I think its probably in good shape too. I don't have a clue as to how to use one, but hey - I negotiated the best I could to get all I could get.

Nice looking restore job! Did you make the missing adjusting pin? Not sure why you are going to grind the jaws when you haven’t tested for run out and used the adjustment. Your process of making the backing plate was really unclear. It appeared you had to face off the actual chuck. That seemed unusual to me. Amazing it still had the reverse jaws with it.

Lathe chuck holding a lathe chuck; how perverse! ;o)

Never seen a rubber bucket like that before.

Hey Dale, great video. Wish we could get that Evapor Rust stuff here in New Zealand. Regards MachineNZ

Great video as I have a similar project coming up with making an LO spindle back plate for a 6 jaw chuck. A little too much high speed editing that you loose some of the content thats interesting to what.

Dale, where did you get the new back plate? I’m needing a L0 back plate for a 4 jaw 10” Chuck.

Your video editing is fantastic man. I like how quickly the scenes go

Nice video! I don't think you need to speed up so much of the machining though.

Please explain more what you are doing and how. Thanks

Did I miss something? What happened with the tapered pins?

I'm so sad to hear of your misfortune of having to take care of a six jaw ...you can send it to me on weekends and holidays. :) I feel the hammer thing is going to follow you around for a while. Looking forward to the grind in. Thanks for sharing, and good luck with your 100g Cheers

great find, ($$$$) great restoration, thanks for the video segments speeded up :) so when do you get a rotary table and DRO for drilling holes on a circle? :) looking forward to the video on grinding the jaws

Just for info - Mustie1 tip.... The "new" WD40 top with flip straw fits on many other aerosol cans. So, never throw it away with the can ;-)
