Afternoon guys.
As some of you guys are aware I have recently started my British empire lathe refurbishing. Today I removed the chuck and came across a strange chuck mounting. The chuck slides on to a collar. The collar is threaded on to the spindle. The chuck is held in place via a bolt that passes through the backplate on to the spindle snout. Never seen one like it. I presume it's a modified version and not a factory set up. I have tried to unscrew the collar but no chance.
