>Just watched a video by Richard Rafftan. He use a chuck that expanded while doing bowl work. Is something available for my old Rockwell/Delta lathe?

>I think all 4 jawed chucks will hold a bowl while expanding. My Super Novas do. But I never use them in that way. I did it a couple of times and the bowl left the lathe. I tend to be a heavy cutter so I just don't feel safe. Give a nice tenon any time.

>Hi Tom

Oneway makes all kinds of adapters for their chucks, and if needed will custom make one for any size needed, their lathes, chucks, jigs and other tools and equipment are of the highest quality.

these chucks will hold very well in expansion and compression mode.

Have fun and take care
