Learn about test bars, go to the locale metal supplier in your neck of the woods and lay in a stock of drop round stock for your test bars. Make sure your machine is level, setup of the machine is the most inportant place to start (before you cut the back plate for the chuck) It's back to basics when you install a new chuck! Good luck and have fun with it!
