We are going to do an introductory special on these. The chuck and collar (collar fits porper lathe) $140.00 shipped. Just the chuck is $80.00 shipped

The collars for the porper lathe are top notch and they fit the lathe like a glove. I have sold many of these and had zero complaints. They can also be machined out to fit bigger metal lathes. We have done it for customers in the past it is an additional $30.00 charge. We would need to know the spindle size and machine them out exactly .001" bigger.

The chucks have been pre bored on a special fixture.

I have the three jaw version of this that I bought from Lee.
Awesome product.
This is a must have, especially on a Porper lathe.

Hello Lee,

Do these fit the Deluxe (Hightower) headstock?
 
Me too. Works real fine as a rear chuck on my Porper B.

Lee are these four jaw chucks idependent 4 jaw, or are they self centering scroll chucks? Can you tell me the thread size in the rear for those of us that may need to machine an adapter to use this chuck as a rear chuck on a larger lathe? What is the through hole size?

That is a self centering 4 jaw chuck, Hole though size should be about 1 3/8", and the thread should be 1 9/16"-32
 
Review

I ordered one of Lee's 4 Jaw Chucks via eBay on Wednesday and got it TODAY! I got the one without the collar, as my spindle thread is 1-9/16 x 32.

It came nicely packaged in a small box withing a box, wrapped in plastic and then wrapped in that brown oily paper (sorry, don't know the technical name of the paper). There was red packing/shipping grease on it as well. I toweled that off as best I could.

Included were two key rods and a 7/64" allen key.

So first I wanted to see how true it was "out of the box". I unscrewed my 3-jaw chuck from the spindle. One thing I had never done was to see how true my spindle is, so I cleaned up the exposed portion and set up a dial indicator on the beveled lead-in portion of the thread - TIR .001" - not bad.

Then I spun the chuck onto the spindle and snugged it down.

Now, I don't have an indexing rod that I can say is "perfectly" round, so I used drive pins that I have bought from various AZ'ers. I chucked up the first one and got a TIR of .001". That one has a straight shaft of about 5/8". Then I chucked up another style that has a 3/8" shaft with a 3/4" collar and tested it - .0015" TIR.

So my reaction was DAYUM!!!! I'm impressed - I had previously tried trueing up my original 3-jaw chuck and was getting .0035" TIR!!!

So, needless to say I ordered up another one (my spindle supports two) before I wrote this for you guys.

GOOD JOB LEE!!!

P.S. I hope my methodology passes the RHN test!!! :wink:

I got two of these chucks from Lee and have the same results. They are great quality and the price is not bad for a 4 jaw chuck. Thanks Lee.
 
Hey Lee ... want to buy two of them.
Sent you a pm and an email.
Called you on the phone left message for you to call back.
