[@mburns6197]

What jaws are you using on the VM120? You mention 5" bowl jaws early in the video, but Vicmarc calls their cole jaws "bowl jaws." Can't decide if these are the dovetail jaws or step jaws.

[@CraftSuppliesUSA]

These are the 5" dovetail jaw. We reference to them as "bowl jaws", they are almost used exclusively with bowls and platters as opposed to general purpose turning jaws.
