I have a line on a used plain back lathe 3-jaw scroll chuck from a well-known and respected manufacturer, the type that has reversible jaws. The downside is that the jaws that come with it are special purpose jaws (soft jaws, I think, machined for a specific job). I suspect that installing new step-type jaws to the base piece is not as simple as bolting them in place.
Has anyone fitted new jaws to a chuck? What is involved in doing so?
