Hello,
I have a #3 Warner Swasey model M1200 lathe that I've used for years.
I really like the machine, It has some wear but with a little thought I get by fine.
The machine was fitted with a three jaw chuck when I purchased it. I've had a few jobs recently where a four jaw would be really handy but I cant seem to get the three jaw off to figure out what mount I need to look for or Fabricate.
Anybody ever have one apart or know how it comes apart. I assume it's threaded on but I can't get it to move.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
Mike
