Shop-Made Lathe Chuck Step-by-Step Instructions1. Start with a 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" block of hard maple (Figure 1). 2. Use a band saw to cut the corners off, thereby producing a rough cylinder 31/2" in diameter with the grain running end to end. 3. Drill pilot holes and use #12 sheet metal screws about 1-1/4" long (Figure 2) to attach the block to your faceplate (the smaller the faceplate, the better). 4. Mount the piece on the lathe. 5. Bring the tailstock with a live center up for extra support. 6. Position the tool rest parallel to the workpieces. 7. Use a roughing gouge to true the block. 8. Use a square scraper to reduce the right end of the cylinder to 1-3/4" diameter and approximately 1" long (Figure 3). 9. Remove the tailstock. 10. Reposition the tool rest in the front of the blank at a right angle to the axis of the lathe. 11. Use a 3/8" spindle gouge to true up the face of the blank with a light, shearing cut. 12. Place the point of the spindle gouge at the center of the blank to begin hollowing the center. 13. Push the gouge in to produce a hole 1" deep. 14. Withdraw the tool. |
