Hi John,I think i might have not have been as clear as i could with this post,sorry about that-must be clearer in future.My cva is a toolroom lathe and the problem is wth the cams that lock the chuck.When i looked closer it seems one of the lugs on the chuck backplate is solid and they should move a little i think,I will free it off and see if this makes any differance, fingers crossed.Thanks again John. glen
p.s. sorry for the long time in replying.

Good afternoon all,
The cams in the spindle of my cva lathe seem to be a bit worn and i was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of a new set?.
Also, does anybody know the dates of cva serial numbers,one of mine is
S/N 1A 1526-kearney&trecker but no build date,the other is AJ958-AUG 1956.Any help on would be fantastic. regards-glen

Thanks John,glad you have been in touch as i know you have a cva.I hope you don`t mind me picking your brains in the future.
Gray, I will have to find out about the holbrook, sounds like a nice peice of kit.Has anybody got a No1 cva-the round one before they squared it off.It would be nice to see some photos if you don`t mind-never seen one
