Hi all.
Yesterday I tried to take the 3 jaw chuck off a really old LANG lathe and failed. The chuck has M17 stamped on it, it's roughly 12" Dia and has 4 bolts on the back of it that go through a ring with slots in it. I loosened the bolts OK but couldn't budge any thing, didn't want to smack the chuck around in case of damage, ( couldn't damage the lathe much more by the look of it) any ideas lads? (I know I forgot to take a pic)
