Where to purchase a pin chuck?

[notaryjon]

I would like some places to purchase different sized pin chucks? I know I have seen them but cannot find any now.

+1 on Rick's work. I wouldn't wait. His work (in my opinion) is the best there is. 5 Stars

LMAO..:biggrin:

I just love how PSI's 'Patent Pending' design seems to work exactly like something I showed here for dismantling pens, some time ago....
Sure, they use the method to turn closed ended and I made mine to remove mech's .....but the principle is the same with the expanding rubber.....

You should patent attack them, lol.

He made one for me and it works great. Contact him for special sizes.

I also recommend Rick. I have several of his pin chucks. I also have the expanding one from Arizona Silhouettes. Both work equally well IMHO, but Rick's are less $$ even at full price.

Rick is the man to see for pin chucks. He can make them to fit almost any kit and with the Bash discount, it is a no brainer.

We used to have similar expanding plugs to use for field repairs on firebombing aircraft when they had leaking oil coolers. The Douglas A26 go back to the 1940's so the principle is much older than we are. :wink: Someday someone will unearth an ancient tomb someplace with something similar in it. :glasses-nerdy:
