    Default Rock Chuck Company?

    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.

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