Well, a) the drill has only drilled a few dozen holes, but it is several years old.
b) I am pretty cheap
c) I like to tinker
d) it would take me 2 hours round trip to get to a store that carried replacement chucks. I could spend that time tinkering.
e) it's the principle.
f) this chuck holds fine, it just doesn't spin so freely
