Default Cole Jaws

I am new to this group and I ask your indlugence. I would not reccomend
using standard jaws in conjunction with the cole jaws. I believe you
would stress the screws, not to mention making it very difficult to
turn much of anything at a speed you need. The cole jaws need to go
slow. The torque is tremendous on them. To add another set of jaws and
a blank, coupled with increrased speed would be beyond any reasonable
safety measure. A better solution, in my opinion, is to purchase a Nova
midi church (uses tommy bars) and dedicate it to the cole jaws. These
chucks are available for around one hundred dollars.

Hi
I finally recieved my cole jaws for the supernova 2 chuck. My question
to you all is; do you keep them on and then mount the normal jaws onto
the cole jaws or take em off after use.
I ask this as they have written on them, not to exceed 600rmp but tell
you to mount the normal jaws on them, but if you then spindle turn with
them on at 2000rmp...........
