I have a SN2 Chuck and want to know if there are jaws to fit that will solve the following problem:

Most of my turning has been small stuphph and any larger turning, such as bowls, has been done with the chuck in expansion mode in a recess in the bottom of the bowl.

However, I started some pieces at the club before I left Bris. and these were done with spigots using the jaws
in compression mode.

The spigots are between about 88mm and 96 mm. Is there a set of jaws that will do the job of holding these pieces and also fit my SN2 chuck???

Skew ChiDAMN!!

Teknatool lists the jaw ranges for spigot, expansion & square stock on part of their web page. (http://www.teknatool.com/products/Chuck_Accessories/Index.htm)

Looking at that, the Power Grips handle spigots between 77 & 98mm & the 100mm (4") will handle 78 to 99mm.

Personally I like the Power Grips, but the 100mm may 'fit in' better with your existing jaws.

Also some of nova jaws have extra hole with treads that you can attach timber jaws to depending on what needs to be held!

Thanks fellas!!

Tried to get onto the Teknatool site yesterday but I wasn't successful.

Must have been a gremlin at work because it came up today.

The Powergrip seem to be the go as it has some versatility to it.

I think Carbatec have a dowloadable pdf that lists the Nova range of jaws.

Edit: Here’s the url. Probably straight from Teknatool.

Thanks dabbler. I had checked that out but the Power Grip Jaws are not listed.
