<lovelace_> The chuck for the new stand drill falls out easily

<lovelace_> I can't see how it tightens up  

<artag> it should be a taper. Assuming it's clean (not got anticorrosion varnish on it) then it should want a good fast whack up into the quill. Not with a hammer - just push it fast, by hand. Use the momentmum of the chuck to get it in hard.

<artag> if there's a screw thread in the end of the taper thrn it can use a drawbar like the 3-in-1 but that's fairly unlikely

<creature> Your mum enjoys a good fast whack up into the quill.

<lovelace_> K, seems firmly in now

<Randomskk> that's what she said
