If you're interested in reviewing the posts, I'll provide links. Lots

good reading, with pics to help in the descriptions.

I'd be interested too. Perhaps it would be good to collect the posts
into a tract that resides in the dropbox.

Here's the link. http://www.chaski.org/homemachinist/...pic.php?t=4266

Unless you are a registered reader of the Chaski board, pictures can't be
viewed. Otherwise, you should be able to read all of the posts on the
rather long thread.

Because the posts were done long ago, when the board was running different
software than is currently used, some of the pictures are no longer there.
Those that are important are, however.

Hope you find the posts useful.

I am a registered (albeit infrequent) reader. The photos really help.

It turns out that MSC has steel jaws for about $21 each (76553791) and
aluminum for $28 each (08637274). These have integral 0.500" keys
machined right in, so location should be more precise.

I also need to see which sprocket on the chuck gives the best
repeatability.
