Lathe Chuck Backing Plate
#5
Thanks Guys.
I did a search from a couple steel suppliers in and around Saskatchewan Canada with not much luck finding large cast iron available.
So I placed an other from McMaster Carr. I was able to find Impact-Resistant Ductile Cast Iron Disc 6" Diameter, 1" Long. I hope it is the correct stuff?!!!! 
I have drilled and tapped Cast Iron before. But I have never done and turning of Cast Iron. I’m looking forward to trying this. I have heard Cast Iron is really nice to turn… Other than the mess!!!
