260026 Erik Levin 2016‑09‑14 Re: Yankee no 44 chuck
Another data point for the bands of knurl indicating a screw collar. After a few
days of soak, and light heat with a heat gun, out came the leather patch and
channel locks, with the shank of the chuck held in a hole in split a chunk of
wood in the vise. A little working back and forth and motion.
Now, the question become: How does it get disassembled? Once the collar moved,
the need for actual derusting became apparent. Once apart, I can clean the parts
or make replacements for those that are too far gone.
Any ideas on how to get it apart? *** This message was sent from a convenience
