I have removed mt3 by putting a bolt in the chuck and then putting something forked on the bolt above the head and using that to bang on. Best thing I've found is a "Wonder Bar" and then put a block under the other end to make it level. If the bolt slides out of the chuck jaws you may have to

I once had to deal with a chuck that someone had glued the arbor in with red locktite. (And we didn't know that it was locktited.) First tried to use the wedges, no luck. Eventually we wrote off the arbor and cross-drilled it so we could put a dowel pin in there and have something more robust

Spur gear transmissions are inherently noisy. I think that is why helical gears exist. However they typically have higher load capacity for the same width of gear (as I recall). I have a camshaft drive in a hotrod engine that was sold as a noisy gear drive and it is. It sounds like a

You can pin a pair of opposite angled helical gears together to make herringbone gears. That eliminates axial thrust while keeping the benefits of helical gears. Machining them in one piece is quite a tricky operation. Herringbone gear - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |   | |   | |   |   |
