RP3000 chuck

I have a few of the jaws seen on the left.
The 1" dia lug plate with 3 lugs, and an elastic band are what you use. On the right I have disassembled the chuck and the elastic band broke and flew across the room.

To reassemble....First put two jaws through from under the knurled collar, then juggle the third through. Then place the lug plate in place, and snap an elastic band around the jaws capturing the lug plate.

Now screw the body down onto the knurled ring, and you are ready to go.
