Guys,
does anyone have this vacuum chuck (http://www.harrisonspecialties.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=HS&Product_Code=VacuumChuck&Category_Code=LatheAccessories)? It seems like a good design.
I've just ordered a vacuum pump and if I use this chuck I won't need to buy a bearing adapter. This chuck has bearings so the tube to which you connect your vacuum pump is stationary.
I am just concerned that stationary the chuck's steel tube(that goes inside of the spindle) might not be in spindle's center and will rub the spindle as it exits it.
