A couple of notes:
1. this chuck will not give you the versatility of an independent 4 jaw which imnsho is much more valuable than having a somewhat larger self-centering chuck (be it 3 jaw, 4 jaw or 6 jaw.)
2. Hf's web site lists accuracy as .005 mm which is an obvious error. probably more like .005 inches.
3. Can anyone recommend an inexpensive 4" 4 jaw INDEPENDENT chuck for the mini lathe?
Regards
Bob

Thanks Frank and Jerry,
The HF 4"-4 Jaw chuck I was refering to P/N# 47461 for 59.99 self centering. Has anyone used that one? I thought about the 5" and read up on it on mini-lathe.com. Still thinking about it. If you don't want to go through the hasel of making a faceplate. Does anyone sell a faceplate for the 5"? Our could the LMS 6.25 Faceplate be modified our just used for the 5" chuck?
Thanks again,
Craig
