I ordered a 3" screw chuck for my JWL1220 and it arrived last week. Yesterday I decided to try it. I installed the woodscrew and set the set screw against its flat. I used a 1/4 dril for the hole making sure that the drill was as large as the minor dia. of the wood screw. I drilled the hole deep enough to accept the length of the wood screw. The hole was square to the face of the blank.
The blank mounted with ease and the chuck held well. When I tried to unscrew the blank ,the screw broke.
Those of you who use a screw chuck, can you tell me where I might have gone a stray? Do you wax the screw threads?
BTW, the vendor is sending me a neww chuck and screw.
Thanks,
