I was thinking you had to send the whole chuck. How much did he charge for just jaws?

It was $10 shipping + the work (275 I think). I put them back on the chuck and drilled a block last night. Simply beautiful. Everything lined up perfectly.

Trent Rudat

I have a number of items from Trent: chuck, french wheels, bits.
Trent is very accommodating and will do whatever it will takes to make sure you are pleased. I really like the chuck due to the ease of use. I have both, a Lamb and Rudat chuck, but use the Rudat almost exclusively.
BTW-Hey Rad! Great saucer, but where's the cup?
