Nice work Bob, (as usual).
I wouldn't have bothered, you would need to have the jaws way beyond the OD of the chuck for that to come ito play, but that's just me.

yep i no but it macs it esey to put it back in thanks all for the coments

Bob, I enjoy and admire you're patience, skill and drive to restore stuff that we love. I may have time to pay some of the needed attention my stuff that needs attention but right now I have priorities and seem to get less done in the time I have than before I retired.
I guess inefficiency grows disproportionatly with old age.

Great fix Bob, good work!!

Good fix there Bob , you are going to be known as Bob the fixer soon if you keep this up ...........Never mind Bob the builder lol , it will be the new song of 'Bob the fixer' .....can he fix it ? ....... YES HE CAN
Cheers Mick
