Chuck disassembly

(1/2) > >>

DC:
Does anyone know how to get this thing apart? It's a 1/2" chuck from a Dewalt cordless drill. I want to modify the teeth so it won't make such big marks on arrow shafts when I grab arrows with it

DC:
I managed to get the base off. It just pried off. But now I'm trying to get the jaws out. I can move them up and down by spinning the chuck but they won't come out. I don't see a snap ring or anything holding them in.

Pat B:
Maybe not made to come apart or alter.

Eric Krewson:
Just a thought, you could open it up to 3/8" and run a grinding bur down its throat.

I tried that and it just ate the stone. It looks like the teeth in the jaws are hardened inserts. I used a Dremel stone and I don't think they amount to much but the stone is gone and the teeth don't have a mark on them.
