I took the chuck apart and cleaned it as well as I could when I brought
home the very dirty lathe 2 months ago.

I can see that the jaws are worn right where the problem is.
The previous owner drilled 1" holes in bronze until something slipped.
That was all the lathe was ever used for.

Here are pictures of the 3 jaws:
