Fixed loose chuck-here's proof!

[Jerry Ingraham]

I got the dowel chuck to stay on the arbor (see earlier post). I guess I didn't clean the cosmoline well enough, just cleaned it again with lacquer thinner and a couple taps with a dead blow hammer and it seems stuck. Just turned four bottle stoppers without it coming loose.

These are my first bottle stoppers and I have quickly realized that my depth of design ideas is shallow! But, they sure are fun and quick to do! I can see piling up a bunch of these!

Nice one Jerry and congrats on getting your chuck fixed. I have some stopper parts on the way in the mail and that will be my next few turnings!

Glad to see you got everything working! Nice looking stoppers! Nice selection of woods!

Great looking stoppers Jerry and glad to hear it is working now.

Nice design and execution on those bottlestoppers Jerry! Now it will become boring without having to chase the chuck and b/s blank around the shop!:rolleyes:
