Loose Nova G3 Chuck Slides

I've been having trouble getting my bowls to turn true lately. Not a lot of wobble but enough to require a lot of sanding on opposing sides. I'm wondering if the play in the slides on Nova G3 chuck are to blame. It seems to be getting worse over time.

Any suggestions?

Do the bolts on the jaws losin? If the chuck itself has a wobble it maybe the threads in the chuck are wore. If it takes a taper lock you may have to retighten that . Do your face plates run true? If they run true then hopefully not your headstock thread. Just somethings to look for. Murray

Ok - take the bowl off the chuck. Tighten the chuck until the dovetails touch and all match. You might have one a thread out or in from each other and be cutting a programmed oval.
