Another safety tip that could be offered is this: If turning the OD on piece of pipe or tubing and clamping using ID jaws, pay attention to the heat developed in the part. If a part gets too hot, it can expand enough to come loose on your jaws and disengage. Don't ask me how I know this..........

A decade or so ago buddy of mine was a machinist for a company making large printing machines. One of the parts he turned was the journals for the platens. The bearing were put in place after they were heated. He always cooled the journal area before he made the final cut. He heard guy who replaced him neglected that step and cost the company a lot of money before he got a call from the owner for his “secret sauce.”

In our shop, we use 3 jaw check to hold almost everything, even squares... you have to be a bit creative :) Another issue people have on 3 jaws is that "its impossible to make them run true". Sure, but you can adjust that quickly by slapping an indicator on the part and tapping the high jaw to fix runout issues. Anyway, great video Joe. Thanks for your videos. Jimmy

I do that all the time with my 3 jaw chuck. An old timer showed me that trick. It's very useful when you have to flip a part end to end and make the concentricity match. I can usually get it within .0005" concentric. My 3 jaw also has 3 tightening screws for the scroll, sometimes tightening one screw more than the others will move it enough to get it concentric.
@therussianmachinists2409
@therussianmachinists2409 5 жыл бұрын
@@marcellemay7721 I see. I usually tighten only one out of three, but check all 3 to find which one makes the best concentricity. (They can be different ones through different diameters for some reason) and yeah, tapping helps when you need it. I also found that the high point wants to be towards the operator. So if your tightening the key up top, the high point will tend to want to be about 120 deg. to the left. This is because the spiral plate in the chuck has slop and shifts towards the left when tightened. Sorry for the long message Haha but this stuff fascinates me :)

Joe Pieczynski agreed! I’m surprised that the top end units don’t have something like that and considering adding a small line on the chuck face would cost next to nothing it would be a nice finishing touch to a quality chuck . I wouldn’t trust one on a cheap chuck , i think i would rather do it myself and at least then i know it’s in the right spot ! There is a lot of food for thought in that video Joe , i think i will have to watch it a couple of times to make sure it all sinks into this thick cranium of mine !

Hello Joe. Nice video. Good old fashioned common sense, all those things that should have been explained to us when we were apprentices. When I was a lad one of the biggest crimes in the apprentice school was leaving your key in the chuck. You soon learned to not only remove it but to put it in your pocket when you left the lathe. If you did not one of your mates would put it in the chuck for you, wait until you were at the other side of the shop and then shout ".... you've left your chuck key in", loud enough for the foreman to hear. The foreman must have been a brave man, can you imagine being in charge of thirty young lads in a shop full of dangerous machines? The other day I aquired an odd chuck, I have put a short video up 'Unusual lathe chuck' , I would appreciate it if you could have a look and tell me what it is for. Best regards, Jon

Great video Joe, solid information which should help a lot of people avoid mistakes with their chucks. And thank you for covering the sequence for reinserting the master jaws. I worked in production shops for many years and mostly with 18 to 24" 3-jaw chucks, and some 32" 4-jaw chucks. My first shop had old equipment and beat-up tooling, so we had to improvise a lot. A job came in which, in retrospect, should have been run on a boring mill: large parallelogram-shaped blocks which needed a ~4.5" hole bored through them. We ran it on a Warner & Swasey 3A turret lathe with a special fixture pinned and bolted to the chuck face, with one top jaw providing the sole clamping force. The sequence was: face the outer side about .300", drill 1-9/16" through, drill 3-5/8" through, then bore to size. Tedious and scary job, and I ended up doing most of them. That's my one-jaw chuck story!

Glad you covered soft jaw bore diameter. In my shop we cut a lot of rings for bearings (CNC lathe work). Maximum out of round varied .002 to .006 depending on the part. Maximum flatness/parallel deviation .003 typ. We held the parts in pie jaws and bored them to the exact nominal outside diameter of part (which dep. on the customer had a +/- .001 or .002 tol.) And then held at very light chuck psi. You could always tell when guys rushed the jaws on their set-up. The parts would run way out of round and/or way out of flat. Jaw diameter and torque are absolutely critical and should not be overlooked or underestimated.
@ctdbass
@ctdbass 5 жыл бұрын
I'd like to add that the bigger the part the more extreme these effects seem to be. I ran and set-up the big parts (8"-18") and the rest of the shop ran the smaller ones (1"-8") and the chuck pressure in flatness of the jaws was extra critical. Bore size mattered across the board.
@wwilcox2726
@wwilcox2726 3 жыл бұрын
@@ctdbass the size matters due to what is called "tunnel strength". It requires more force to crush eg. 1/4" wall 1" diameter tube than a 1/4" wall 6" diameter tube. As an example this is a significant factor in choosing wristpin diameter for performance engines vs. wall thickness. Wall thickness to diameter affects dimensional rigidity.

If you draw your circle with permanent marker it will not erase while you are showing your examples. To get the permanent marker off, just draw on it with the dry erase marker and let it dry. Then erase it like normal and the permanent marker will be gone. I used this when I used to teach and it saves a lot of time. Thanks for the video I learned a lot and thought I could give back some with the permanent marker trick. Have a good day everyone.

I have same 13 x 40 as you....I can agree it is the best lathe out there...and it was built in 1997...still tight and accurate. I was on sack lunches for years until I finally got one! My 4 jaw (Buck) has jaws that the top is removable ...thus I can use soft jaws and even weld to the jaws if needed. Keep up the great work....in the next month or so...I have a gift coming your way for your Colchester ... Hope it knocks your socks off....

Good material Joe. This makes me feel motivated to mention the condition of old, abused or poor quality machines that have "Bell Mouth" jaws. When you encounter a machine that has this condition the problem presents itself in holding stock correctly. You will observe that the jaws are actually holding tighter back in the throat of the chuck rather than out at the tips where you would ideally like it to be. At times machines with a really bad case off bell mouth will exhibit chatter when you have material stick out that you THINK is acceptable yet it still chatters. That is because you are actually holding the part 2 inches back in the chuck effectively making your stickout longer than you think it is. This will often really show in parting operations where it starts honking like a beast with 1/2 inch brass for example. Bell mouthing can be a really dangerous condition when holding small or hard stock out at the tips. If the bell is bad enough parts can literally spit out or become dislodged and begin to run out of true. A person can check the jaw contact surfaces with a test indicator to see if they are in fact flat to the tips. If they are and yet it still exhibits this issue there can be a situation where the slots in the jaws are too loose in the body of the chuck. Physically trying to rock the jaws in the body will often show this condition. This sort of thing tends to show up on poor quality chucks made in China.. They use the lowest grade castings for the chuck and the carrier jaw. Over time the parts wear and slop is created at the chuck slot ...then the rocking results. More food for thought. When looking at machines examine the chuck wrench hole and the chuck wrench. If the hole in the chuck is not properly square or the wrench is showing signs of material displacement on the corners be motivated to find out why. If the T wrench handle is looking more like an S...someone has been torquing the snot out of the chuck. Chances are it's not going to be a great performer and could motivated the need for chuck replacement.

A spyder can be made to hold the jaws adjacent to the work holding points i.e. the angled surfaces allowing loads to be placed at the end of the jaws. Doing this on a very worn Hardinge chuck restored it to usefulness. Someone apparently put a ring outside the jaws and bored it "true". With substantial wear the chuck was now useless. If we could post a photo in comments I would show a tool I made to fix this one.

Another great video , I just marked my #3 jaw what a great idea as well as a safty feature! Please consider making a "spider" video and demonstrating how you use them ! Being a new (old) guy I'm learning a lot from you and a few others too! Thank you very much!👍👍👍👍👍

Hello Joe from John. As usual I learned something new. I have always been wary when extending the jaws to close to the limit of the scroll on a three jaw, I will now take your advice as it is a splendid safety feature for those unwary. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge, John, Australia.

Thanks John. Give yourself at least 1 full scroll engagement, but realize you can't torque the life out of just one tooth. Its a warning mark for multiple reasons.

@@joepie221 Thanks Joe I understand all that you have said and always do this and limit torque at the extremes of chuck travel. The Idea of the Mark had not come to my mind. That is a no/brainer in a way so again thanks. John.

Nice to see new versions of Buck chucks. I have two on my Sheldon 11-44. 11" swing 44" bed (under the head to the back of the tailstock. More like a 30" usable bed. :-) Dad and I bought it in 1952. G-Box and tooling. In a Hardware Store ! Nice lathe to this day.

Fantastic video. I have a lot to learn and I'll be watching this again soon. I'm also going to watch your video on a rotary table again. My knowledge is very much lacking in this area. One thing I think you should have mention is the effect of overhang on smaller lathes (South Bend, Logan, Atlas etc.) My Logan 820 has a 1-1/2" x 8 threaded spindle and a chuck that has a very deep body and jaws with chatter like crazy. I'm talking about the distance from the tip of the spindle to the where the work is hanging out of the jaws. My original Logan chuck has 2.75 depth and an aftermarket chuck I have is over 5-inches. I'm glad I have the capacity of the larger chuck but it is not ideal. If you are interested and want to see an example of what I am talking about search youtube for: "Power Hacksaw Restoration - SawMaster 3114" and jump to the 10:20 mark. Thanks!
