> Thanks. I don't want to modify the drill press only change the chucks if it is possible. I need 1/8" capacity instead of 1/16" I'm looking to find a used chuck that would work at reasonable price. I will ask Cameron but not sure if I'll be able to afford to pay what they want for a new chuck.


You said that you have a 0-1/8" keyless chuck, which is standard on
that drill. That is what is on the one I have. I beleive that Gunner
had a couple small chucks for sale, but that was a year or so ago.

Thanks. I did say I had a 0 to 1/8" but I meant to say I had the 0 to 1/16". I need the 1/8 or 5/32.
