You make it all seem very clear and simple, which requires knowing your subject and being a good teacher. Very much appreciated, thank you.
Love the comment about the difference between English and American turners and the number of chucks/jaws :)
I am English and am constantly amazed at the size of American turners' workshops and the level of equipment therein.
I am about to set up a workshop, it will be 2.5m (8 foot) square (minus a bit where the doors cut off one corner).
Budget for the interior of the workshop is about $5000 (and my wife isn't happy with me spending even that much "to make a couple of bowls").
I reciently bought my first chuck a htc 100 as I am new to woodturning and I'm very happy with it
I enjoyed your take on woodturning chucks.as for the British, not having many chucks, this is a mith, I have 11 chucks, not counting screw chuks,fase plates, and yes I have the jaw sets,,the best thing about the Axminster chuck, is if you purchase the Accessory jaws for each set of holding jaws, you can change them over in a matter of minits,this saves time, and is more conveneant. I also have a 6"-- 4 jaw independent by a USA manufacturer. P&B I look forward to your video update UK ENGLAND
Thanks for the info , just what I needed.....
Hi,here in the UK I Love to turn so I have 8 lathes wood a metal, 4 of each and 32 yes 32 chucks also just purchased the pen state Ind USA concentric chucking system.cost 200$ including post and UK tax.I also have 6 milling machines,7 pantograph engraving machines,I could go on 3 workshops,as an old pensioner and retired engineer I love what I do it is just a hobby to make gifts for animal charities and sick children,keep up the good work love the USA,great people great country.thank you.
Thank you for this. Really helpful for newbie lathe owners....I think the lesson is "you can never have too many chucks"
Excellent presentation.
Really? Is your father?
Sorby makes a great chuck with a lot of jaw selections
Choose any chuck and get the jaws you need for that system. The expansion size is of no value as the best holding power comes from the jaws being almost in their closed position anyway. Just change to larger jaws if you need a larger spigot or recess. I've yet to go larger than the vm120's standard jaw size on very large bowls as that amount of wood on the spigot is plenty. The best reason to have a few chucks is so you aren't changing jaw types often, I have one setup with coles jaws all ready for when I need to turn the base off the bottom of bowls, that way I have the standard jaws ready to go for the next project. Saves a to of time but the costs are high.
HI , I thought that Teknatool from NZ were the first to make a woodturning 4 jaw self centering chuck now called Nova chucks
Have you used the Nova chucks?
They seem to have a great selection of jaws.
Thanks for the info, very good! What do you use to keep them clean and what lubricant do you use?
Great presentation on chucks. I just bought a powermatic 90. Looks like you have a variable frequency drive on yours. What variable frequency drive do you recommend. Did you leave the existing variable speed belts or replace
If your talking history you should point out the first woodturning scroll chuck was brought out by Teknatool, the Nova Chuck.
I've got a pcc 2000 chuck and have no clue how to use it
This was a treat! I also own a collection of chucks including the Axminster with Mcdonnel Jaws. It also was my favorite for many years until i acquired the VM150 with the over sized dovetail jaws. It is a significant contender that shouldn't be omitted. The presentation was terrific! The Hurricane chucks look great. What is the minimum-maximum size hole the pin jaws can hold in expansion grip?

Is there a way to modify the metalworking chuck jaws so they can be secure on a wood lathe?
I have a Hurricane HTC125 Woodturning Chuck. If I want to run in reverse mode, is there a security pin or screw to prevent the chuck not to fly out ? Hector Sanchez
I just bought my first lathe at Busy Bee Tools in Edmonton, Alberta. They also have a chuck set that is in my price range and has an assortment of attachments. Would u have a look at it and give me your impressions? It's a B3184 on sale for $225. Tx
I m new to Turning and am going to purchase my first chuck. I have settled on either the HTC100 or 125. Do you have any guidance you could offer?
Hey my friend awesome video i like it,Hey Sir i have a Delta Iron bed 1440 it's a older model and I need a chuck but don't know what to get, If you can given-me and idea I will appreciated my friend thank you :)
The Axminster super precision is still available from Axminster.co.uk. It's still a great chuck!
Tom Stratton not any more. They have evolution that is v good
do u have a Norris Chuck ?
+Sopterean Bogdan-Lucian OMG the pain the suffering
no one spins Chuck - Chuck spins you
I have a cheap chuck from PSI. It works great but I always see turners with way more expensive chucks. What makes the more expensive chucks better?
Having both a PSI and Nova chuck, the Nova is a step up in build quality and easier to m I unt jaws. The jaws are dovetailed to hold the piece which is stronger both stated and in my opinion.
Very interesting & informative video. Any thoughts on the utility of the [new] Easy Chuck? Is this a trend that the "big boys" will soon weigh in on & add to thier product offering? Thank you ...
---MarkS
Mark Smith nice product but way over priced for mass market appeal + prof turners tend to have 1 Chuck per jaw size so limited prof market too.
Oneway has 3 different chuck's, (the Oneway,Talon & Stronghold ) all which have 3 different sets of standard jaws + numerous other specialty jaws. Along with this they have drive center's, worm screws, etc whiçh fit I to the chuck.
I think you totally missed the mark in the comparison of the 3 chuck's, especially the Oneway, IMO. In fact it has been called one of the top 2 or 3 chuck's on the market.
Eu gostaria de complar a placa mas nao encontro igual a esees
Does the Oneway seriously not have a back? I can only imagine that they "fixed" that! If not - what are they thinking?
Andreas Scholz I have a Oneway stronghold and a Oneway talon and no back on them is not a problem. I think they are the best holding chucks on the market with their serrated jaws at least that's what an old wood turner told me when I was buying them.
no mention of Vicmarc?
merciiii
Seems there are a lot of just junk chucks out there.. Yeah I used faceplates, 4 jaw independent and 3 jaw chucks for over 50 years.. I bought a nova some years ago and was so upset with them. After 15 years of trial and error of many makers I found the Vic mark 120.. The quality and ability of this make is just unreal. In my opinion. Just skip over many and buy a Vic mark.. Simply the best …. Thx.
Xnot really true, I only have 3 Chucks
Damn I wasted a lot of time hearing about chucks they don’t make anymore and metal Lathe chucks. I was hoping to learn a little about chucks we get now for wood turning. Also it sounds more like your hawking certain models. A lot about nothing we know how to spread and close the jaws. Advertisement
