Re Dusty`s post today. My milling chuck doesnt work loose as I use the drawbar to hold it secure However, on occasion, it has stuck tight but with my new drawbar as previously described, it is no problem to remove. I have used the tang – ended tailstock drilling chuck in the mill spindle to drill holes and its come down. Ido clean my tapers internal and external. I use a piece of soft cotton cloth to draw through, like rifle barrel cleaning.
