- Finally I have not one but two Longworth Chucks to finish my bowl forms with. This is how I built them.
Thanks to Henrique Sampaio for his inspiring Longworth Chuck video. I decided to base my build on this video.
• Longworth Chuck english
Every wood turner needs a longsworth chuck really nice builds
+timothy mcswain I can't wait to give it a try. Thanks Timothy.
I just finished making this same one out of 3/4” maple plywood and 22” diameter. Your instructions were excellent. Turned out nice. Thank you!
Thanks Stephen! I built the smaller one with 6 holds like yours as my lathe only has a 14" swing. You made me think a little to convert the 8 to 6 holds. That's what makes a Great Teacher!
I wouldn't worry too much about time when it comes to making tools Stephen...it's worth it.
Man, you did that project justice. Well executed and inspiring as ever.
+David Smart Thank you David. Glad you enjoyed it.
I appreciate your sharing the Longworth chuck with us. You gave very good directions and showed the project work quite well. I do intend to make the smaller version for my Jet 14" machine. I believe this type of chuck will hold better than the Cole jaws. Thanks and God Bless. Will from Albuqquerque.
+Will Nail Thank you Will. I really like using these longworth chucks. I do believe they are more practical than the Cole Jaws because of the ease of use. They grip very securely.
Thank you Stephen for sharing this project. I do appreciate all the thought and long hours that was put into it. Take care
Thank you very much Cher. Glad you enjoyed this project and for your appreciation of the time and energy it takes to produce tutorial videos. Take care.
just finished my longworth chuck following your easy directions, my advice to any one thinking about one is to measure thrice cut once, mine is as smooth as silk and puts a smile on my face, thank you Mr. Ogle
Thank you Michael. I hope you enjoy your new Longworth Chuck. Glad you found this project helpful.
Stephen, I need to build a Longworth Chuck for my workshop so I decided to come to the guy that always shoots straight. Easy to understand and can be followed easily, so I came to you. I've always found that you give the direct scoop. Thank for your videos. Best regards. Richard ....
Thank you Richard. I am glad that I can help people build jigs for their shop and save them some money for the things that they can't build themselves. Glad I could help you build a longworth chuck for your lathe.
Really good Job and nice instructions Thanks
+Charles “Tim” Reicks Glad you enjoyed it Charles. Thank you.
Love your explanations and easy to follow directions on making this.... I just made one to fit on my lathe with 12" swing... Saved me lots of money, with purchase of some basic hardware, birch plywood, and rubber stoppers from a local brewing company, cost me about 40$ compared to buying one online.... Love that I have something for my lathe I have made in my shed.... Now I'm seriously sizing up your sharpening system.... Hmmmm 😉 thanks for the great videos...
Thank you Pamela. Glad this project helped you build your own Longworth chuck. Building your own Jigs and Fixtures can be very satisfying and economical at the same time. The best part is that you do not have to give up quality also. I think you would really like the sharpening system. I have only had good feedback from people who have built it. Take care.
Very nice job. You out did yourself on this project.
+Lou VanDyne Thank you Lou. I really appreciate it.
Steve,
I love your UA-cam channel! Thanks for being so informative and sharing your techniques! After watching your channel all last winter, I picked up a lathe, nova G3 chuck and some chisels and did some turning! I went right for the bowl and to my surprise, it turned out! I have been really enjoying turning and watching your videos and just want to say thank you for being an inspiration. Take care!
+Michael Quinn Thank you Michael. I really appreciate your comments and find them inspiring. Welcome to the woodturning world.
Thanks you are a good teacher from timberbuckets wva. Drew it up last night just need to slow my lathe down now 1750 rpm hope I can put a bucket on it to turn the inside I do all the work now by hand no power tools once again nice
Turned out great.
+ITS A WOOD THING Thanks. I can't wait to test it out.
Fantastic, very resourceful.
+jason w Thank you Jason.
Great job on the Longworth Chuck. You make so everyone can understand how to build their own. Keep up the good work.
Spence
+Spencer Brown Thank you Spencer. I hope too.
Nice one Stephen ,been meaning to build one myself ,think I will now
Fine! Now I have ANOTHER project to build. ;-D I can see many advantages to the shop built Cole Jaws I made. Much more range in the size bowls it will handle and no need to move the rubber bumpers for each size. Great video and very clear description of each step. Well done.
+Gil Grace Thanks Gil. Yes, I agree. I have a set of shopmade cole jaws and have only rarely ever used them because they take so long to set up. I really like the concept of the Longworth Chuck and can't wait to give it a try.
Thank you for a great video. Made mine today and it went together without a hitch. You did a perfect job showing how to. Thanks again.
Very well done.
Can't wait to see them in operation. Very interesting.
+wayne brown Thank you Wayne. I hope to use the smaller one in my next video.
Very ingenious project. Makes me wish I had an ability to design jigs like all you guys out there. Your videos are very informative. Thanks for the time to share your knowledge.
Danny
I like the way you made your chuck! Well done video!
Excellent build, Stephen. Can't wait to see you use them.
Lee
+Lee Waterman I can't wait to give them a shot. Thanks Lee.
Stephen your videos just keep getting better both content and presentation! I have no question about building a Longworth Chuck after watching this one. Great project and terrific video!
+John Williams Thank you my good friend. I really enjoy making these videos and I hope to continue with them. Tell everyone hello from me.
You are a very talented craftsmna, really enjoy your work. Thanks for sharing.
+Dev Ogle Thank you Dev for your inspiring comments.
Hi Stephen Great tutorial on building a Longworth Chuck.
Thanks for sharing.
Pete
+Peter Mitchell Thank you Peter.
Just found your channel , your directions to make the Longworth chuck are so easy to follow. I am making the same, one large and one smaller version.
I've only just started to do the wood turning and I am trying to make everything I need made .Thanks for the info and hello from England.
These are awesome. I think that I will eventually be making one of these for myself. Thanks for the video.
Thank you Tony. These things are great. Glad you enjoyed this project.
Really nice instructional video Mr Ogle, very impressed!!
Really enjoyed watching this project Stephen, well narrated & detailed. You'll have many hours of use & enjoyment with these I'm sure. I have to use Cole jaws as my headstock doesn't rotate on my Jet.
Thanks again for sharing & regards as always ......... Geof Harris (England).
+geofo60 Thank you Geof. Glad you enjoyed this project. Hey, You can still use this system over your lathe bed if you would like.
Thanks for posting this Steven. I always look for new videos from you. Have learned a lot from watching.thankstom
+Tom St.Clair Thank you Tom. Glad you are enjoying my channel. Hope to keep you watching.
This was very good video thanks
+allen laidacker Thank you Allen. Glad you enjoyed it.
Very nice job.

Great build, Stephen. I can't wait to build me one.
+Jesse Evett Thank you Jesse. Hope you enjoy your build.
Fantastically beautiful job!
Very cool. can't wait to see you use them.
Cheers.
Thank you I have a couple of video uploaded now where these are used and they really do work very well.
Keep the great videos coming and I am looking forward to seeing you use the Longworth chucks.
+Ed Salva Thank you Ed. I hope to use the smaller one in my next video.
Looks like it works really smooth Stephen, great job! Can't wait to see one of them in action.
+Edward David Thank you Ed. I hope to use the small one in my next video. Maybe, I don't know yet.
Excellent video, great for banjo pots.
Nice job Stephen, I think a small one is in my future.
+Paul Trembath Thank you Paul. These things are great. I wish I had built them a long time ago.
Steven,
that was awesome. I'm going to build one now. thank you for the awesome instructions and for posting.
peace,
Jeremy
Thank you Jeremy. This thing works great. I am still using it very often with no trouble.
excellent video and you did a very good job of making them... I look forward to seeing them in use, also I hope to make my own one day... thanks for sharing...
cheers my friend...
+Adam Quincey Thanks Adam. I hope you enjoy your build.
Awesome work Stephen!! The chucks came out great. I really like your style of wood working and your videos are very informative. I have learned a lot. Just beginning with turning. Keep the videos coming! Jeff
+Jeff Mundkowsky Thank you Jeff. Glad you enjoyed this project and good luck with all your turning en devours.
I really liked your video. I have wanted to know how to make one. Thanks for another good job. I really enjoy your videos.

+Hu “cillyede” Ko Thank you Hubert.
Great job...I sure need one of these!
Stephen very nice as always, it's been on my to do list to make. You make it look much easier especially the layout. Will check out the tramel next. Get a big bowl chucked up for us to see.
+John Fisher Thank you John. I have some large bowls planned and hope to get started on them soon. My next video will be using the smaller chuck. Hope you enjoy it also.
That was great Stephen. You explained that very well. Thank you very much . Kind Regards Col
+Col Taylor Thank you Col. Glad you enjoyed this project.
Nice Job! Awesome build. I think I'm gonna make one for myself! Appreciate the content
+Gene Duckett Thank you Gene. Glad you enjoyed this project. Hope you enjoy your build.

excellent video thanks stephen Barry
GOOD JOB QUITE CLEARTOM
+Tom Canada Thank you Tom. Glad you enjoyed this project.
muito obrigado pelo video eu gosto muito de ver o seu trabalho parabens nota 10 carlos .
Great video Stephen. I'll be making one of these sometime soon!
+Michael Anway Thank you Michael. I hope you enjoy your build.
Hi Stephen
I have been a long time subscriber and watched many of your videos several times - always pick up on another little nuance that helps me.
It's been quite some time since I have seen you post a new video and would love to see you back on UA-cam.
Any chance you will be back on video in the future - I certainly hope so.
I love your work and your video style and hope to see much more.
Sincerely
Dennis Beamish Cambridge Ontario Canada
Now take the exact same design as your circle cutting jig for the bandsaw and use it on a table saw. When spinning the board you raise the blade a bit at a time until you cut through the board. This will give you a smooth finished edge that is square. Just a different way to skin the cat but my choice of methods. I have a power feeder that I use to spin the board for added safety.
+James Stanlake Thank you James. I have seen this method before and you are correct about the nice cuts from the tablesaw. Thank you for sharing this information.
Man I really enjoyed this video!!!
Great job Stephen I really like way it turned out. You know I he last comment I left I was thinking you were making Cole jaws.
Take care my friend and do a kindness
Mark
+MARK Baid Thanks Mark. I thought that was what you meant. I can't wait to try it. Do a kindness my friend.
Good job.
Enjoyed your video. Hope the information I sent you awhile back was helpful. Thanks for sharing.
+Tom Pritchard Thank you Tom and Yes, it did. I did a lot of research to build these before I jumped in. I even drew them in sketchup to make sure the angles were good. Thank you for all your help.
Quite welcome...
Thanks for the video! Would have been nice to see you demo of removing a bowl bottom.
Thank you Dean. Glad you enjoyed this project. I have used this chuck in a few videos since. Here is a link to probably the best one. Hope you enjoy it also. ua-cam.com/video/wngIgX4bhmc/v-deo.html
Looking forward to the Big Bowl turning. You have a safety warning in this video, I hope you take your own advice. Bigger Bowls store more energy, I for one don't want Stephen hurt. Wondering how you are going to set up the tool rest w/ the head turned? GL Oh great video.
+Stephen Johnson Thank you Stephen. My lathe tool rest has an extension that can be used while turning outboard. I am also going to build an external tool rest similar to Sam Angelo's (The Wyoming Woodturner"
Nice!
Thank you!
I want to build this thing later, though I have to build a lathe first ;)
Super
A 20" bowl might take some extra planning. For instance how would you lift such a massive blank to mount it on the lathe? You might need some help...or a cherry picker engine hoist. ;-)
+Gil Grace Thanks Gil. I will probably not make the bowl from one massive blank and will lean more toward the economy or segmented bowls. I do not have a good hoisting system yet. Ha!!
thanks
great video....are you using your bluetooth headphones as your microphone to make your videos?
I'm an old machinist, worked for about 10 years on manual lathes and mills until I had to start using CNC machines.....Never heard of or used a Longworth Chuck. How well do they hold the work? Hope you are making a video with one of your new chucks.
+Bob Jimenez Thank you Bob. I don't use my Bluetooth as a microphone I just listen to music with them. I really like the Longworth chucks and have been using them. I now have two videos up where the longworth chucks were used to finish the bottom.
Stephen, you NEED to check the volume on your intro music, versus your voice.
I need to REALLY dial back the intro music, and when you start talking, I can
BARELY hear you.
Or, intro is at a 9.5, voice is at a 2.5.
Stephen, I wouldn't comment, if I didn't care. KEEP the good stuff coming!
steve
+Steve Skouson Thank you Steve. I will always welcome constructive criticism and I will work on that. Thanks again.
Great video, I have one question. Is there a reason for doing one slot at a time? Couldn't you do all the slots 1/8 deep, then lower the bit? That way you lower the bit only 8 times rather than 8 times per slot
Great video Stephen! Quick question for you, the jig you made for your router, the trammel, how did you get the dimensions of the trammel to accurately cut the archs? The distance between the pin and the router head, is it simply the distance between the inner and outer line?
hello, ? for you. love your videos by the way, thanks for sharing. I just boutique an older delta lathe with a gap bed of 16" and plan on using the outboard side to turn big bowls. I will be trying to make this Longworth chuck as well. but to my ? the outboard tool rest I have to make and was wondering if you have a pic or any suggestions for me where to start thanks.
Thank you David. Check out Sam Angelo's video on his outboard tool rest. I hope this helps. ua-cam.com/video/V961RRFZVQY/v-deo.html
Thanks for the info, just watched his video, might have to give this a try, thanks again
Sam Angelo
good job my friend, im going to make one, but i noticed the smaller one only has six slides is there a reason for this? also what is the jig you have hanging on the side of your shelf above the light switch behind the bandsaw?
as always "turn on"
hubie
+hubie hubco Thank you Hubie. Glad you enjoyed this project. The jig you refer too is my trammel for drawing circles. It is just a large compass. Thanks for asking.
thanks, i thought so but was not sure. did the smaller set of jaws only have six slides? was that all that was needed
Stephen,
I just watched your video on production of a Longworth Chuck. Where did you get the tachometer for the lathe?
Excellent build video Stephen. very informative and packed with important detail and techniques. Really looking forward to some monster bowls from you in the future :)
Take care my friend
Mike
+Mike Waldt Thanks again Mike. I have some large economy bowls planned for the large chuck and Hope to use the smaller one in my next video.
Gtrat job Stephen. How much does it actually increase your turning capacity? Keep it up buddy. Always a lesson learned while watching your videos.
+William Kelley Thank you William. My lathe capacity is 16 inch and with this Chuck I can go up to about 19 1/2 to 20 inches. I do not want to go larger that that simply due to the fact that I will probably never turn anything larger.
Acho que ele teria que por a placa para funcionar.
Thank you sir. I am glad you enjoyed this project.
Longwoth secure? I have an aftermarket one and it is easily the worst money I have spent woodturning. I used mine Monday trying to take a tenon off and not only did the bowl come out but the chuck came out of the jaws of the chuck and rolled out of the door and into the yard. It never runs true and the slightest catch pops it from the nova chuck. If you are a beginner and read this buy the cole jaws, they actually screw into the body of your chuck. PS sorry for the rant and I hope your longworths work for you Stephen.
+James Templeton Thank you James for your input. Do you have the Aluminum or Resin? I can't believe someone would sell one of these without a reliable way to mount it onto a lathe. Thanks again my friend.
+Stephen Ogle I won't say which one I have but it is plastic with a metal tenon. I know my chuck is true because I use it quite a bit, lol. But for some reason this longworth will never seat properly into the jaws of my chuck. Plus (and I blame myself for this) I can't get the tension even with each "knob". Also even with a great deal of loosening of the wing nuts the plates are very hard to slide even with the tailstock loosely holding the bowl to the plate of the longworth. Maybe I am not doing something correct but for "me" I prefer the cole jaws. When I saw how easily yours rotated I admit I was a bit jealous. As I said I really hope your two work very well for you.
The metal tenon may be the problem. If they are too hard, the jaws can not bite. I would have expected you to tell me the wheels were metal and the tenon plastic. I do not like the idea of a metal tenon for a woodturning chuck. If you can disassemble the wheels try sanding very smooth and waxing between them and even wax the grooves also. I would not give up on it completely. Hope all works out well with it for you. I would also like to know which company made it so as to watch out for them in the future. Take care my good friend.
Hello Stephen. Forgive me for personal question but i'm just curious is this is Your hobby or You are a professional?
Thank you sir. Woodworking is a hobby for now. I stay too busy at my primary job to be able to work in the shop that much. I can retire in a couple of years though.
Nice Longworth Chuck. How do you like your Grizzly?
Stephen, I made one just like yours but the rubber buttons don't seem to hold it in good for some reason, how's yours doing?
Thank you Todd. I am still using this chuck without any modification. I do not have problems with the bumpers, However, you could try a different design. There are lots of variations you could use. I hope this helps.
Stephen Ogle, I may buy the buttons from Rockler or maybe I'll try a donut. I'll let you know. Thanks Stephan, lathe down your tool to rest...
Nice work. Really need to make one of these. How slow can you lathe go when using outboard?
+phooesnax Thank you sir. I really appreciate it. My lathe's minimum speed is 600 rpm.
OH Be careful mine I think is 320 and i am afraid to big outboard.....safety first. You could always go three phase with vfd and intermediate shaft.
Really a nice looking set of chucks though!
Thanks for the heads up.
I really have to make these for myself too... :)
How do you stop the plates from slipping while turning? After adjusting the size do you tighten the wingnuts to keep it from slipping?
+timo viitanen Thank you sir. Yes, the wheels are secured with the bolts and wingnuts.
I am making a Longworth chuck. I am really not much of a hand with routers. I can not find a 1/4 inch router that is over 1 1/2 inches long.
+L.R. Norris Thank you. I found my bit at The Home Depot. Hope this helps.
i bought a 1/4 inch up cut bit at home depot it was $17 and change for the governor
Be nice to show it actually being used. Looks nice, but need to see you use it.
Thank you sir. Here is a link to the first video using this Longworth Chuck ua-cam.com/video/wngIgX4bhmc/v-deo.html
Great job Stephen, nice build.
+Carl Jacobson Thank you Carl. Glad you enjoyed it my friend.
Steve this was a very enjoyable video. You explained everything that I was looking for. Thank you for sharing
Do you have any videos where you're using one of these chucks? I'd like to see one. I plan on making me one but I'll probably only use it for glue up and stacking rings etc.
Awesomely done video Stephen. You have a good way of explaining all the details. I have decided that its an item I cant do without. I'm starting on one today that will be 24 inch diameter so maybe i can get about 22" bowl in it. Thanks for such an informative video.
+Bryan McMinn Thank you Bryan. Glad you enjoyed this project. Good luck with your build.
Can you tell me how I can get longer rubber? “I don’t know what to call them”. Holders? . For my longworth chuck.
Good question. I would try door stops. You should be able to find them at the hardware store. I have never used them but I think they may work just fine. I hope this helps. Take care.
Very good visuals on jigs used. Thanks very much.
+Robert Horn Glad you enjoyed it Robert. Thank you.
Great video Stephen! as to yet I'm unsure if I need one but if I do, this where I'll come back to. Enjoyed the whole process and expertly explained build!Take care, Bram.
+Brams shed Thank you Bram. I am sure this will make bowl and platter turning much more efficient and have a better end result.
Great build Stephen, that is one large chuck!! I tried making one of these a couple of years ago, my router died on me mid way cutting the groves, and that was it, never had the chance to replace it or finish it. Yours sure look perfect :) How large are you planning to turn over board with that large one? The smaller one looks something I could use on my smaller lathe, yeah, I should start working on mine, I've been working on jigs all week...
+Yuval Lahav Woodturning Thank you Yuval. I do not plan on turning over 22 inches and designed this chuck for that purpose. I hope you will finish your chuck also. I have used mine several times now and don't know why I haven't built on before. Hope you enjoy all your new jigs.
My hat off to you my friend. Great video and great build. Now to see it in action LOL.I am sure that is already in the works son I wait patiently my friend.FYI I have no clue as to what's going on with UA-cam and Google. for some reason I don't get any notifications of my friends uploads, not even mine to say my video was ready. I hope to get this fixed soon.Till next time... Take care and be safe.
+Al Furtado Thank you Al I hope to get really good use from these. I have never gotten notifications of new videos uploaded by people I have subscribed too. I would just search their channel periodically. I do get notification of my new uploads being complete. Ha, I don't even need those.
Looks very good, have you tried either chuck out yet?
+James Goodin Thank you James. Not yet. I hope to use the smaller chuck in my next video. It will be it's first use.
Thanks for sharing
great video, like that little center finder as well
+gulfmedic1 Thank you. Glad you enjoyed this project. I just turned the centerfinder on the lathe.
