I agree? that 4 jaw is best in some circumstances.? ?If I ever get around to doing any barrel threading work, the 4 jaw will be the way to go.? Thats one reason I made a lathe spider.? Just need to find some brass fasteners. The big issue there is pass thru diameter.
But for work that doesn't require high accuracy or cocentricity and work that may be removed multiple times, I need a 3 jaw.??
I do one day plan on making a ER32 collect chuck.? GP has a drawing for one .? I also found another real good drawing for one but I cant find it now.? I have the one from GP printed out and ready to go.
Thanks Jody

I learned on a lathe with only a 4-jaw. The initial days were madness but now I can dial in a 4-jaw faster than many can select the right collet for their collet chuck. Plus on some work the 4-jaw is the only way.
