How to prevent MT2 arbor from sticking in lathe tailstock?
My MT2 drill chuck got stuck in my lathe tailstock. I did not want to
crank *too too* hard trying to push the arbor out for fear of damaging feed threads. I finally got it out by taking apart the tailstock and heating the ram (if that's the right term) with a little propane torch. Tapping a rod thru the ram then popped the chuck out. Tapping the rod did not work until I added the heat. My question is how do I prevent the chuck (or other arbors) from sticking (that much) in the first place? |
