i fixed my chuck by mounting a 1/8" diamond coated rotozip tile bit in the mill collect and the super chuck in the mill vice in a collect block and the bit centered at full cut depth then slowly tightened the super chuck by hand. worked great and ended up with .0009 run out. thanks for sharing
Hi Dale I'm between beer 8 and 9 so take this for what its worth... Paint a new drill shank with some non-drying ink and then clamp it in the chuck you just ground. That will tell you more about the effects of taper while grinding. Also, you didn't seem to mention about 'walking the key'. Where you tighten the chuck at every location of the chuck perimeter. This helps to distribute the force on the jaws according to the old fart that that taught this old fart about it a hundred years ago
3:56 As I’m sure you know vise is not a press. As always be careful with what you use it for, never use a cheater bar or mallet on the vise handle, and be prepared for if what you have in the vise comes flying out at your face. I get it you can’t use a transparent moving blanket to protect yourself from if the chuck were to come flying out when you’re recording a video, but I still thought it could be worth mentioning for those who see a vise and consider it a press. Thanks for the video and keep up the good work!
When grinding, especially internal, and with the wheel mounted on a super skinny shaft (as here), reciprocate the wheel to and fro inside the bore, but never traverse the wheel off the surface being ground at either end of the hole, always leave about 1/3rd of the contact portion of the wheel inside the hole at its extremities. The exact portion of the wheel which should stay in the hole may need a little experimentation, but do it like you are, and cow-mouthing at each end will always result.
Hi Kevin from Aus very interesting at what you done I have done this a lot of times in my time as machineical engeer 55 years if you grind in a lath you need to cover up the bed from grinding dust with a bit of oil the quicker to wear out bed I wood put it in the tool and cutter grinder using the arber on drill chuck and taper in the grinder no setting up . keep up all the good work Kevin.
I was worried when you pressed on the jaws, but the explanation you gave from Jacobs made sense. Even better when you suggested using a tube, like it. I wonder as another method if the chuck could grip onto a small disc right at the back of the jaws, allowing the chuck to be gently tightened and then grind the free section. When done remove the disc and over grind that rear section using your free spin method to give clearance. Of course a small part of the jaw is no longer gripping the drill bit.
I thought of that too, but I think the force is not equal enough, more pressure on the back will kink the front tips of the jaws inward making for a tapered grind.
I'm pretty sure the chuck, when ground this way, is going to be most accurate when a diameter test piece is the same as the diameter of the stone used. Can you check it using test pieces larger and smaller than the stone? I have a chuck with the same issue. Thanks
Regarding the gripping force on a drill bit, it's almost all down to simple friction. It's proportional to the applied load, not the surface area, so touching more or less of the drill isn't going to make an appreciable difference. On the upside, if the drill bit starts to slip in the chuck I reckon you'll probably do less damage to the shank with a greater surface area as well. As to centripetal force holding the jaws in place, I don't think that's likely. The grinding forces would likely overcome the centripetal force quite quickly. It's more likely that it's simply how well fitted the jaws are to the chuck and the pressure applied during grinding. In any case, if the result is good that's all that really counts. Job well done I reckon.
Do it like you do a lathe 3 yaw chuck? Put a peace of round steel on the bottom of the chuck and hold it tightly.Do your grinding,remove the metal ring and grind the bottom just to clear it.That should give you concentric ground jaws under load with very little runout.
Late to the party, but I noticed at 2:18 the jaws were never evenly ground from toe to heal. Looks like they are designed to grip only at the top. Went back and looked because the 1deg on the compound didn't make sense to me. What am I missing?
Regarding your point at 1:49 regarding the diminished pressure applied by the ground chuck jaws...that may not be true,or at least doesn't seem geometrically correct to me. Assuming the drill bit can be approximated as a cylinder, the cylinder can only contact a flat surface along, a straight line. It's either that or no contact at all. So, making the contacting planes larger y grinding would not change this. Of course this is also assuming no pressure induced surface deformation.
Hi Chris, Good comment, I m sorry I didn't explain it well enough. What I should have said is that the Harden Jaws are designed to bite into the soft shank of the drill bit, and by grinding the jaws you add more surface to them, and that prevents them bite into the shank of the bit. Dose that make since?
I’ve seen ABOM tighten his 6 jaw lathe chuck from all of the pinions for less runout. I wonder if tightening a Jacob’s chuck from all three holes on the body could help the barrel of the chuck sit better.
A Jacobs 19L came on an old drill press. The seller said the chuck needed "a little love". One jaw sets way back from the other two. Those two only travel about 1/4 their designed range of motion before the third jaw blocks further travel. Nothing appears broken. The problem of disassembly seems like a Rubik's Cube to me though I've disassembled other Super Chucks. The machine shop where I do business took a look and said, "You're out of luck" and handed it back. Any ideas? Would you be willing to try? Thank you for your channel. You put out good videos.
I feel there could be a follow-up for this. I recon you could get that thin edge back after this grind. You have the nice even face now, just grind the sides in to thin it out.
Not to be a troll about it, but the coefficient of friction is independent of surface area, given a constant force. In other words, if you're getting less holding power, it's because you changed the surface finish of the jaws rather than the surface area. I could be wrong about this, it's always been a little bit confusing to me, so I did a quick check. www.physlink.com/education/askexperts/ae140.cfm But even then, I could still be wrong.
That's the funny thing about friction - it IS independent of surface area. From what he says though, we're considering surface deformation as the clamping mechanism, not just friction. To deform a material, you have to apply a force, and that force always is applied over an area (in our real, non-ideal world). Since there's only so much force those jaws can apply, it deforms the drill bit less when it is distributed over a larger area. I'm still not sure I buy it, but I think that's the reasoning he explained. I might think about roughing up the surface finish a little to give me more grab instead.
@@toomdog I thought that before I actually wrote my comment, but decided that the clamping force is really no different than the gravitational or normal force as applied to the question of friction. Obviously the clamping force is a great deal more than gravitational force, but the general concept should apply the same way. The concept I'm talking about is that when friction is distributed over a larger area it increases the frictional serface, but decreases, by that same area, the force applied by distributing that force over a larger area. The net result is that the coefficient of friction remains the same. And I honestly don't think it matters whether you're doing this on the Earth, on the moon, or between clamps, the relationship between surface contact and applied force over a surface area remains the same. But hey, I barely survived my physics class in college, so who knows. It would be great if some Physics teacher could chime in here and settle the matter.
@@toomdog Addendum to my previous post, I don't think there are any chucks that can actually deform a drill bit. The reason chuks are hardened and the base of drill bits are not is so that the chuk jaws don't get damaged or worn during adverse use, such as when a bit begins to spin in the chuk. I know this is contrary to popular wisdom, I think if you think about the dimensionality of the pressure on a drill bit, reason will show that I'm correct about the lack of deformation.
I agree; I wish I could get my old college prof here too! I also agree that the shanks of drill bits are left soft not so that they deform when clamped, but to ensure they are the wearing item when slipping occurs. This is something I don't know a whole lot about, but I think surface deformation behaves a little differently than the deformation we learn about in statics and strength of materials. Imagine, instead of the entire chuck making an indentation, every microscopic high point creates an indent. That's what I think I'm talking about anyway. You know, if we were serious about this, we would do some research instead of just talking on youtube. I'm sure a mechanism like this has been studied before.
I just found out about walking the key from and old hand at work. He saw me drilling a holes in a plate to hold a new bracket. The welder had made a new bracket for me to install on my unit. He was very busy and had stopped he project and whipped up a piece fo me and went back to work. I had brought my drills and tools to work with me but I was using the company’s old drill press. The old drill press had an old worn out chuck, my coworker was working on some a few feet a way and watching but not watch. He said “hey you need to walk the key!” Me “walk the key? Him” around the chuck. “ i had just put a drill in the chuck, and he said “ spin it and watch the run out” “stop and now. walk the key” and it worked the run out was almost gone.
I really like the idea of mountin the grinder on the tool post,it does seem to give you better control, that's my problem you keep giving me ideas. Thanks
Awesome idea, are you actually using centrifugal force or, by screwing the chuck full open, it jams the jaws with pressure similar to grabbing something. Since you taped the chuck to prevent movement is why it appears to be the jamming action. Great video
Ok Dale, you set me straight about the position of the jaws when pressing the chuck apart (Thank you), but not covering the lathe's ways from the grinding dust? What's up with that? It would be interesting to know how they grind the jaws at the factory. I've never seen any info on that process.
Hey I am very interested where you aquired the mag paralell device that rotates? I have an anton much bigger one but I also have a smaller one like what you are using in the video. Can yours still be searched out and what is it called and the company?? Thats it good video but am very curious about the ,mag device--I do in fact have a few videos of mine perhaps I will try to post the link.. Hope you see this message thanks
Dale, I’m wondering if this might be done on a surface grinder some how? Then you could reprint the wedge side to narrow down the surface contact area.
@@bobblack3870 maybe a piece of wood you draw out, It must be soft to push the jaws in their slots in an uniform way. Also you can use soft plastic, or hard Rubber. Imagine a round hardwood stock you can clamp into the vice and draw It out
Hi Dale. Nice work on the chuck. Could you use the power feed? That would smooth out the feed rate. Of course I would like to see the press brake reassembled. I haven't met a machinist yet that doesn't love watching someone elese work. 😆😎
You can now die in peace knowing that you made this great accomplishment in your life, that history will remember you just like it remember julius ceasar ,napoleon,stalin or hitler XD
Good video. You missed one thing. How do you tell when/if your jaw are worn out? You alluded to it in your viseo, but wasn't made clear. At least to me :-)
Your right I missed that point. There are to ways, one I showed. Put a test rod in your chuck and test for it’s runout. Second thing to do is a visual inspection. Look in side and look at the jaws. They should all look the same. Have a consistent shape no tapers no nicks. I hope this helps. Great question.

I've got a KR Wilson 50 ton press similar to that one. Mine has the 2 speed manual pump as well as a motorized pump, all factory. Had to make a new ram for it when I got it due to rust pitting. The new one with new seals still leaks just a bit. Mfg date on it is 1947. Company history info: krwilsontools.com/index.html
warum wirfst du das schrottfutter nicht einfach weg und kaufst dir dafür ein gutes futter, bräuchtest du nicht so viel zeit vergäuden und würdest nebenbei was sinnvolles tun
Dale, couldn't someone with your equipment and skill mill/face the jaws rather than grind? Sure, work holding, esp repeated 3 times, would be a challenge on the mill but a DRO would help

Thanks for the video Dale, I enjoyed it. Love all your videos
I always learn about new things I need to buy for my lathe from your channel. Now I need a tool post indicator!
Needle rollers from an old 2 stroke little end bearing would probably be about ideal for locking between the jaws.

Try making sure the jaws stay in the same positions. Number or dot them, perhaps.

Dale, interesting video. Now if you could now STOP having adverts throughout your video's ( never used to be ) then I will be a Happy Bunny.
The thumbs up click just wasn't enough of a "thanks". Thanks, Dale! And don't let the idiots get to ya! Your videos are greatly appreciated!
Thank you :-)

Sure, work holding, esp repeated 3 times, would be a challenge on the mill but a DRO would help
Hi Len. It would be hard to do it on the mill because the jaw are tool steel hard
