So I made my own and here are a few pictures of my attempt.
1" nut ex HD (was a nylock nut had to be modified)
Made a extender to get the chuck away from the motor because of this
Here the whole thing is mounted onto the rear plate of the chuck
The assembled chuck
What it looks like mounted on the lathe with the clearance to the bed
Now what i intend to use it for . A bowl where i have removed the base and have turned an inset to act as a replacement base.
A view inside the bowl with the insert laying loose undeneath.
Of course with the wobble i get cutting out the bottom of the bowl was interesting but fun.
Ok thoughts and comments go to town.
P>S> Still have to put finger holes into each side of the chuck to aid in tightening.
