Today while cleaning my QC through the method of lifting and dropping the QC flange - everything popped out and the spring and ball bearings came out. Nice - guess it's better it failed while I wasn't running the job I had just loaded.
So everyone knows that design wasn't the best and it seems "just in time" for my QC failure I've got the option of two replacements.
First question is does Carvewright fully warranty their new Carvetight system against defects like Ron does for the lifetime of the product or is their policy still the same as it was on the QC?
*edit* I removed the second question because I just found the answer on RJ's website
Has anyone removed their carbide bits from the QC adaptors to use with your Rock Chuck. I just spoke with C.S. at CW and they said it's very difficult and frequently results in bit damage. Is this just a marketing response or is this most likely the case on the carbide bits? That is a significant savings not having to buy new bits and would lean me more in the direction of Ron's chuck.
