Wow, I'm impressed! Take a cheap chuck that everyone writes off as junk and make a diamond out of it. It's a real project just to get one within a few thou. Mady a little more work but well worth the effort. Thank you for such a great video series as well as all your video!
Outstanding result mate, I would be over the moon if I could get my 3 jaw that close, you have done a excellent job here and it was great to come along for the journey, good onya mate and thank you, Matty from Australia 🇦🇺
Absolutely beautiful from start to finish. I really appreciate that you experimented with the muted sound and the action in high speed. I'm not sure if it appeals to everyone, but I find it relaxing to watch, and so much more conducive to absorbing the info. Thanks.
I have, I stuck in a 1.5" piece of 304 stainless and the TIR went from what you see in the video to ~.001". That extra runout very well could just be the surface finish on the stainless because it isn't ground/machined. Or there may be a slight variance in the chuck scroll. Even with the extra runout of the larger piece, I am still very pleased with the result.

all your planning and attention to detail paid off in the end. Thanks for posting
Thank you sir. I was concerned about it holding its zero but I have had the chuck on and off the lathe several times and it is holding strong.

Thank you sir. I will probably continue to mute the sound through the speed up parts. I will continue to experiment with future videos.
Pretty good feeling when a plan works out to make something better than new. Carry on, sir!
Wow I would call that a done deal. It was well worth the wait. Thanks again for the videos.
You're welcome, and thank you. I am enjoying making videos and am glad there are people out there that can get something out of them.
Great idea and well done. Thanks for sharing it.

@@BasementMachinist and if it mattered, you could dial it in to a few tenths again. Great job.
