Need advice on second chuck
Hello all. First time poster I own a Sorby lathe that I bought some years
ago when Farris Machinery was a US distributor. Due to a move the lathe had been in storage for some years. Now that I have a shop I'm getting back into turning. I currently use a Oneway chuck and have generally turned smaller items...currently Christmas ornaments. It has become annoying and time consuming to switch back and forth between the one inch and two inch jaws and have decided to make another chuck purchase to avoid the hassle. I've considered (a) another Oneway, body only, which would allow me to use the jaws I already have (just the 1 and 2 inch); (b) a cheaper Penn State scroll chuck that comes with a 1 and 2" jaw set, or, (c) upgrade to a larger chuck and use the Oneway as my secondary chuck. Anybody gone through the same thing or have any words of advice? Thanks in advance for your help. |
