>When I turn with my super Nova chuck on my Delta lathe there seems to be a lot of movement on the tailstock end of the piece. I do not seem to get this movement when I turn between centers. Any thoughts?

>Is you insert screwed all the way in. Also check the set screw in the chuck threads to see if it is tight. I have had trouble with the screw working loose when I am hollowing deep pieces.

>Is yuor piece centered in the chuck jaws? I assume from your post you are talking about the piece you are turning and not the chuck itself.
