My cheapie Enco chuck had the teeth on one of the jaws break off and now
it's pretty much useless unless I can get a replacement jaw.

Any recommendations for a 4-Jaw chuck for a 13" South Bend lathe with D1-4
Spindle? Bison? Ebay? Iggy's tool emporium?

Machine this and buy a plain chuck to go on it.

I thought maybe you would program a lathe chuck in that CNC mill and produce
one for me with that tool steel you have laying around! :-)

Iggy for sure if he has a deal at the moment.

Gotta picture of the damage? I"m having a hard time trying to understand how you loose
the teeth on a 4 jaw.

The teeth on this cheapie chuck looks like they were cut straight through
with a slitting saw at the helix angle or there about. So the teeth on the
jaws, looking from the side, are like this:

I've felt some of these teeth break before, they may tighten down good
enough for a wood lathe but not for a metal lathe.

Thanks for the info all.

I think I'm going to buy a couple of back plates per Iggy's suggestions and
tool the lathe up with a good 4 jaw and a 3 jaw, maybe a 6 jaw if I find a
bargain.
