Very good review, as usual, Fred..
Question: Did you feel that the low turning speeds were due to the chuck being
offset in the Shape shifter, or do you find this typical with eccentric chucks?
Did you buy or return it?
I found this requirement a little cheap on the designers part, but I guess you
can't give one to everyone..
I like the concept, but will wait until Dan or his competition come out with
something a little more user friendly on the mounting end... As in availability
of different spindle sizes as the chuck manufacturers do..
Seems like it wouldn't be that hard to offer one in 1-8 / 1-8 or 1 1/4-8 / 1
1/4-8...
I don't think I would of bought my first chuck (Oneway Talon) if I would have
had to buy a spindle reducer to use it.. YMWV
Thanks again for posting the review, Fred...
Hello All,
Looks like I didn't fix the link so that it would work. Here is
another try:

I hope it works this time.

Hello Mac and others,
I finished reviewing the ShapeShifter eccentric chuck and have written
a review. This hasn't been proofread by Mildred as yet, so if you find
typo errors let me know. You can see the review at the following link:

If one doesn't own an eccentric chuck, this might be a decent option.
