Rock Chuck Company?

[djarboe]

Does anyone know if C-W Parts is still in business. I bought my rock chuck from them, and wanted to get new bits, and adapters for larger shank bits.

I understand he had a personal tragedy due to a fire. I have tried to contact him via email, but no response.

Should I change my chuck back to the original? When I bought the system, I also bought the entire router bit selection from CW. In order to use them, however, I need adapters.

Suggestions would be most appreciated!

I have heard the same about C-W Parts and don't have anything to add.

If you change, I would not go back to a QC Chuck as the CarveTite at LHR is far superior.

If you do change, I would be intersted in buying your Rock stuff.

it doesnt cost much to switch to the carvetight. i just sold my rock chuck to docwheeler and you get a credit when you return the old chuck to LHR. i also needed bearings for that truck, so that saved me even more money because the new truck comes with new bearings. private message me if you want a money breakdown. unless nobody minds me posting that to the public??

Does anyone know if another company supplies the Rock Chuck accesories? The CarveTite is a bit pricey for my budget.

If you are looking for a 1/2 inch end for the Rock Chuck I have an extra. Are you using 1/4 inch? If you no longer want to use 1/4 inch, I could trade you a 1/2 for a 1/4.

I only use 1/4 inch.

Thanks Al,
but I want to keep my 1/4" as well. I appreciate your offer, however.

Here is the email address listed on the site:

Hope this helps.

I tried all that, and no response. Bummer.

[djarboe]

That's a very kind offer. does this one work with the Rock Chuck?

If so, I'll be glad to pay you for it.

Let me know

Yes, the 1/4 inch lower part un screws and this 1/2 inch chuck screws on in it's place. He made a 1/8th inch version too. The upper chuck stays on the truck. It really was a impressive design.... Send me an address via PM as I am going to the Post Office today.

[djarboe]

What is PM?
Nevermind, just figured out how to send a private message.
