- Adam gets excited by the prospect and potential of a new lathe chuck he just received, using a collet system he's envied for years. It'll be more gentle on materials he's machining than the six jaw chuck he normally uses, but will require a bit of clean up and calibration. But its accuracy is what ends up surprising Adam as he spins it up for a test!

Also Collets are self centering. While 3 or 6 Jaw does get close when centering, the are not as precise as a Collet. 🙂 Like Adam pointed out you can center a 4 jaw very precisely, but you have to do it manually and its time consuming.
Dear Adam... When you were a starry-eyed young scene-painter and model maker with dreams of working in movies, did you ever imagine that one day there'd be a one-reeler film with the gripping title "Adam Savage Installs His New Lathe Chuck!" and tens of thousands of people would flock to see it on opening day?
Why does seeing Adam happy make me happy, anyways i love the vibe Adam
Are we supposed to pretend we don't see the box labeled "Mummy Book of the Dead" right there the table saw?? Don't tease us like that, Tested, come on!!!
I wondered if I was the only one about to say something!!!!
You can hear the joy and astonishment when Adam exclaims "Ho HOOO F*****". I love it when Adam is thrilled.
I love how Adam just HAD to make the chuck-key holder before he was done for the day!
Well, it had to go somewhere, and it ain't gettin' tossed on a shelf.
The follow-up video will be Bride of Chuck Key,
He was giving it the stink eye when he began cleaning the chuck. We all knew it was going to happen.
I truly understand the pure joy you felt at get that mounted with basically no runout on the first try. It’s a testament to the quality of the new equipment and justification of the purchase that it stayed true during shipment.
I think some of the runout you measured there was from the identifying etch on the endmill. The indicator was riding directly over it, which sort of suggests it's even more concentric than you thought!
Ah, nice catch!
Adam being able to just make a holder for his chuck key, without going to get materials or have a complicated design process, is true goals as a maker.
Thar's the kind of thing I whip out in OpenSCAD and 3D print.
I'm similar to Adam, I'll just grab some random scrap, modify it, and screw or nail it to some pre-existing surface.
No reason to overthink tool storage.
I do both. Really depends on the thing and my mood at the moment. I love grabbing scrap wood and creating a thing that way, but I also love the neon pink aesthetic I have going with a lot of my 3D printed tool storage...
Incredible tool lover = foolish tool hoarder, or not?
I love how I’ve never heard you say like and subscribe. It’s just about sharing your passion and kindness with people. I thank you for sharing your readily apparent joy of creation, making, working, and filming. Thanks for your great videos!
The look on your face, Adam, was worth any price! Love your reaction, your enthusiasm, your Joie de Vivre. Thanks for sharing this.
Riiiight. So that box labelled "Mummy Book of the Dead" is just going to get unmentioned...? xD
I will never, ever get tired of these videos
"because I didn't think about it and I'm impatient" is a great summary of my life.
Why do I get so excited when he gets new tools and parts? OH! I KNOW WHY! CAUSE ADAM GETS EXCITED! I love having an engineering mind.
Adam, did you catch Inheritance Machining do a chuck adapter for his rotary table so he can move chucks from lathe to mill without removing the workpiece? Has the same cam lock system.
I'm looking forward to seeing how you're going to store all of those collets!
As impressive as the lathe chuck accuracy is, how about the tool you are using to measure it? The machining and work that must go into making a tool capable of measuring to that level is amazing!
Measuring tools are the holy artifacts of the machine shop. Both because they are treated with the reverence they deserve and because they're the only thing you can't reliably make yourself (at least the most precise ones you have). Without having high quality, well treated and certified measuring equipment you have no idea whether what you make is within tolerance or not.
I love these videos and thanks for making them ! Used to watch you with my papa growing up who sense passed
One of my favorite things about the editing on this channel is when Adam walks off screen and there's a seamless cut to him walking back into frame a moment later even though logically much more time has to have passed in between.
Adam's excitement at the accuracy of the new chuck is SO heart warming... Find the joy in the little things in life my friends, in this case the REALLY litl things. Lets all strive to be more like Adam.
I really enjoy watching you do lathe work. I can never afford a wonderful machine like that so I live vicariously through you doing your thing. Keep making such assume work.
I believe this is a Pratt Burnerd Multisize Collet Chuck + Collet Set EC2-EC13. I had never seen it before.
Nice... Even better feeling is when you put indicator in chuck and measure this deviation along a 5 in long test bar in place for a carbide drill in all x, y, pitch and yaw.
I always find it funny that when you get a reading better than expected, the first thing is to disbelieve it and check the indicator is actually contacting the piece.
I find it fascinating, that the first lathe/milling machine, then made parts to make a more accurate machine, and on and on. It all started by hand manufacture!
I've been on another This old Tony binge, i was expecting vacuum pop sounds when he plucked collets out and air ratchet sounds when he unscrewed the cam locks 🤣🤣
This is totally awesome
I love how a box casually reads: "Mummy book of the dead" like its the most normal thing in the world haha
Nice Addition, dat is accurate!
Part 2…though I worked a lot on lathes in my early years, I ended up sharpening circular knives on many sizes.. resulting in many cuts and stitches.
do you think rust remover might work in the parts washer? no soak, just scrub? probably not.
i have the ER 40 collet & have 200 of a tenth verbal & can adjust with 3 grub screws to being it in to a zero, run out. Now that a collet siystom to have.
Machinist you admire, huh? I too admire This Old Tony!
Dude dead on!!!!
hey the bezel on that electronic dial can rotate so you can look at it right side up.
In the end Adem justified his purchase with how accurate this chuck is! Haha
Hi Tested!!! Adam talked in a video recently about other youtube machinists that he admires. I was curious if one of those is My Mechanics. If you haven't introduced yourself to his page yet, it is another level of artistry and mastery of a craft. If you haven't seen him yet I also apologize, because when I found him I spend the better part of 3 days watching his content because it is so amazing.
Nice! My 5C works great for me, but it does have the camlock system which i LOVE. Was lucky enough to get my South Bend Heavy 10 from NASA
Great chucks sir
Ha! I used to sing Chuck Keys in love too. Dad humour.😂
2:30 that moment is so honest I’ve BEEN there
Ayeee signing Wicked Game by Ursine Vulpine at 13:09. Great song... oh!
The no background music is so damn satisfying
I knew you must be in the tenths when you cursed then spun it around and around and around in disbelief. Awesome!
It looks like a Pratt Burnerd ECxx
Mummy book of the dead!? I hope you’re replicating that awesome mechanism
When Adem announces an upcoming one day build!!! 🤩🤩🤩
I have smaller lathe but really never use anything other than my er40 collets. 3 jaw it came with probably has been used twice in expansion mode only.
@16:54 Regarding a place for the chuck key. At my school (probably after some scary mishap) the teachers built a chuck key holder for each lathe that acted as a safety switch for the lathe. If the key wasn't in its holder the lathe wouldn't start. But then again we almost always used the three jaw chucks. Might be a bit of a different problem if you tend to switch.
Impressive performance from the new chucks btw honestly gave me a bit of goosebumps.
I made that mistake just once...
Was just thinking about that and was thinking back to the machines I used. The solution that the newer lathes I used went with is a cover over the chuck you have to lift in order to insert the key. It adds one more movement to the clamping/unclamping action, but it's independent of the chuck. The cover never got in the way because it was only over the chuck and partially transparent.
At the end of the video you are advertising the temporary measuring tattoo. I went looking for that on the store recently, and again today, and I can't find it. I even went back to the video you did on that specifically and the link in the description there was broken. Are those discontinued, or is there a problem with the store?
Chuck Collet is a great name for a machinist!
It's too late for this year. But next Valentine's Day there should be Chuck Keys in Love hoodies in the Tested store. Inside a heart shape would be two crossed chuck keys. A perfect gift for a maker's SO!
You have every tool in the world
You know something is beyond amazing when the sudden realization leads to an unrestrained (censored) f-bomb.
Wow! This brought back memories! I worked for about 40 years in a machine shop and sorry to say hated every minute.. lol. I worked on lathes, mainly this old belt driven ones.. I’m very familiar with the collets, indicators and such. Many a bruised knuckles hitting the spinning chuck. I used a brass bar to tap on pieces to bring them to specs. Even seeing you lay the cloth down for cleaning I did… I learned a lot from really talented workers..it was not my forte, but the benefits were good, I learned a trade and now I stock dairy overnights in a grocery store..to which I prefer…thanks for the memories
Im surprised youre using a digital indicator. One if the big things with the analog dial indicators is being able to see the "sweep".
I was looking for a comment of this, I 100% take an analog indicator over a digital one any day of the week for that exact reason.
Still, seeing Adam this happy about his new chuck makes me happy too.
Got to remember he's not a machinist he's a hobbiest
@@dominic6634 and? Dial indicators are almost always cheaper and he apparently watches machinists work fairly often. Im no machinist hell i dont even own a lathe or mill and im still surprised to see him using a digital indicator to check sweep
@@trailblazer632 sounds like your pretty talented
@@dominic6634 well im not stupid though i wouldnt claim any talent because ive played with a lathe or 2 and watch machining videos... like adam says he does. I couldnt honestly name a single time ive watched any machinist hobbyists or otherwise use a digital indicator to check roundness or sweep.
"Chuck Keys in love." Well, there's my new ear worm. Thanks Adam.
Adam, you made the cleaning of the Chuck, look like Childs play 😏
so sorry, i had to!
I recognized that collet system from This Old Tony!
Protect this man at all costs.
Aaand a "Book If The Dead" randomly laying around.... 🤣❤️
I've never seen a thing like a parts washer before, so many questions.. I've got some googling to do.
15:08- When you correctly tighten the chuck a bit at a time you can get that good a result. Usually within eight microns. If you had clamped the mount tightly and then rotated to clamp down the rest of it would have been way off.
That said, Dayum! The FIRST TIME?!?!?!
"Put it into rotation." I get it.
I am a machinist and love these videos.
Speaking of larger collets, your six jaw looks to have reversible jaws, and I'm guessing your three jaw as well. That means you can run soft jaws on them, which are effectively custom collets, easily adapted to any purpose and perfectly concentric if machined in situ.
Generally, while delicacy can be a reason to use a collet, the main factors are better grip and repeatability. They can also be used with bar feeders to continuously feed stock without stopping the lathe.
And good gosh: that 5C chuck is 6-7 thou out? You should be within a few tenths. Matt @ Precision Matthews had some really good pricing on a Bison version a few years ago. It was maybe 2 tenths out?
Great collar with extended grip better than E collars with 1mm griprange. by the way 1/10.000 inch is 2,5 micron, but this is amazing result. great buy
sorry ER collars
Ya my next will be a collet chuck
My hero growing up
Science made fun
Thx
I am 90% sure a similar collet was used in the newer Star Wars movies. The "death star" part and Rey's staff incorporated a collet just like this!
The PRatt Burnered KC15 is awesome. I love mine. I also have a ER40 set-tru chuck, you should check that out Adam :)
Having trouble finding the demerit badges for sale on the web store, it’s just apparel 😢
I wonder when Adam is going to create a matching ball for the other end of the chuck key 😀😃😃
anyone knows what kind of collet this is ? I've never seen one like that.
adam is so happy, like loses all composure
As a person who has no idea what is happening I say good job to you sir
*those are some very nice looking chucks...looking forward to seeing them in use on a yet to be filmed one day build or multi stage fabrication project of exceptional cleverness*
Keep chasing 0s 😃
OK, I can't be the only one that caught the Rickie Lee Jones reference at 18:44 ...
an here I thougt all collets are supposed to be that good.
In my shop we have the schaublis system on a few lathes on there it is also possible to go quite a bit bigger with collets, using a few different adapters
Does anyone know what Adam uses in his washer? I worked for a very small CNC company (6 machines, specialising in brass and stainless steel) for about 12 years, and we only ever had kerosene to clean things.
Nice
Is it bad whenever I'm not a machinist but I was still super satisfied by that accuracy.... LoL
I own a Milwaukee M18 3/8 drill... is that bigger?
As a none native english speaker that thought he knew english well, I understand NOTHING what he is talking about....
But seeing him happy with his new toy I can ALWAYS relate too 😁
Every collet will be different as far as concentricity/run out goes. But a couple tenths is good. You’d be hard pressed to do better on any lathe with any chuck.
You say that your 5C collet chuck is out by how much?
Any way to convert a bolt on chuck system to this style? 99% of the day I cannot find the patience to swap chucks because of how time consuming unbolting and bolting takes.
Adam Savage roundness PB
Who is the little man cutout on your parts washer? 6:09
Could you make the blades of chaos
What is this chuck style called?
I like for most of the machining projects Adam's known how far out his other chucks have been and just gone 'F*ck it, we'll do it live!' but this chuck is a different kettle of fish all together.
Mummy: The Book of the Dead --> Can't wait for that video!
Need a gage pin and an analogue dial indicator, or dial test indicator. That's one place where the old fashioned dial is better than digital.
Anyone know the name of this collet system?
Couldn't find the tatts in the store.
Didn't see that Gelbert reference coming.
Don’t you want to cut a test bar from the chuck towards tail stock to see how accurate it is?
I see that "Mummy Book of the Dead" box 👀
At that point its the dirt in the jaws and on the surface that's making a difference.
Breathing on it will make it change size at that point too :^)
