Trevor,
Now I'm very glad you posted that link. I went out to Busy Bee this
afternoon, and they had a chuck that looked just like the one you
pictured except it had a JT-6 taper for $17. I just finished
checking it; it's only out about 0.001" over 4". Far better than my
tailstock which is aligned for centre accuracy rather than "pointing"
accuracy. (My minilathe like most has a MT-2 taper bore to tailstock
bore of about .002" per inch)
Next time I order from LMS I'll pick up that one for the drill press.
The Groz one turned out to be a real Goliath. That is to say,
inappropriate for the minilathe.

Check out the chucks on sale at LMS. I bought this $9.00 one and am
very happy with the quality.
