Lets fix up and restore a magnetic chuck
The mechanism was completely seized and needed attention
This isn't a repaint restoration, or a pristine perfect restoration. I just want to get this functional and use it.
The chuck has been sitting on the floor of my shed for 6 months due to it not working. It was still wet inside when I opened it up. I would say the bacteria / corrosion has been happening for 10+ years
The pin material was 1214 steel supplied by Tyne Valley Metals. They have a variety of engineering metals including 4140, bearing bronze, D2 tool steel and more.
