Chuck Jaw Recall

[Mark Hancock]

This probably won't affect any turners here but have posted it just in case. It relates to the Barracuda chuck, model CSCBARR5 quick change jaw chuck systems.

Mark thanks for bringing that to our attention. I remember voicing some concerns about the quick change systems when they first came out but words that included dinosaur and old fart were bandied about so I never mentioned them again.

If it is the same style of quick change system as that on the chuck most people know of and having used that other chuck I'm have the same concerns as you John.
