Re: Three Jaw Chuck / Spindle Bore Opening
It was rather expensive for a tool you'd only use once in your life. Maybe
setting up such a program again would be a good idea, with a hefty deposit
to borrow the tool.

It had a shortened shank & (IIRC) a #2 Morse taper end to let it fit snugly in the TS. Cleaning it & removing the excess shipping labels from the package took longer than the actual reaming. Previous

Re: Three Jaw Chuck / Spindle Bore Opening
I had turret lathes and screw machines. Everthing was short.
Most drill bit are screw machine length even upto 2?" size.
Reamers I buy long because it lower cost can cut the shank down.

Re: Three Jaw Chuck / Spindle Bore Opening
I’m pretty sure you can figure out why “short shank” would be useful.

Re: Three Jaw Chuck / Spindle Bore Opening
Opening the spindle bore is easy. LMS used to loan short shank reamers for that, until they didn't return. Doing it with a boring bar or adjustable reamer? is just a bit more tedious. (Did mine

Re: Three Jaw Chuck / Spindle Bore Opening
I agree you put a bigger hole.
I have not had to bigger hole but I look at the scroll bearing size the hole needs to smaller that bearing.
I typically buy chuck with hole size? I want.

Re: Three Jaw Chuck / Spindle Bore Opening
John, I see no reason why the three jaw chuck bore could not be bored out to a larger size, in fact I would want to increase the bore size to as accommodate larger material if space allows.
