Thread: So... someone tell me I did the right thing!! (Superjaws)

If there is any 'must have' Triton item, it's the super jaws. I bought a set when they first came out and couldn't do without it now. Get a set of the log jaws too.
[Bought a Triton plunge drill yesterday, also excellent quality.]

Ding, they are the best things since sliced bread! Did you get get the old (better, to my mind as I have one) model or the new model?

Haven't got one myself but friend got one and have used that, they are great. I keep promising myself one but never seem to get the spare dough lately.

I wonder what was the best thing before sliced bread?

A bread knife?

Gotta agree that the Super-Jaws are a must-have. But if you bought one of the old-style (I know a few stores that still have 'em in stock), be very, very careful when you pull the release trigger. They've a nasty habit of biting the unwary.

New one rates well acoording to Triton Japan (Steve) and Wood Borer I think. Apparently no dead spot in the travel (old one needed a packer sometimes) and the pinch spot above the release handle is gone.

Agree Dingo, they're a ripper. I take mine when chasing firewood if cutting up a lot of branches, old fence posts etc. Invaluable.

I have the log jaws but don't usually use them, the standard jaws hold most wood just fine. Would love the heavy engineers jaws though.

You did the right thing.

Mine is in use every day and always finding new ways to use it.

I had to jump in (first post) and agree that this is a great bit of kit.

More stable that I could have imagined. Folds up to bugger all.

I'm happy with the new model Wild Dingo.

Here is a thread on the new superjaws New Superjaws Review

Sooo? I did good huh!

heres how far its gotten... busy as hell just now sorting the new house stuff out but will get a whirl with it on the weegen after its brother arrives... gotta go get me welder later and I reckon theres every chance in hell that anothery will dive into the back of the effy!

So can you find those log jaws at Bunnys or do you have to order them special? Didnt have enough time to have a good look around just saw them and they chased me outta the store... turned my head for a mere few seconds and they were in the back

ooh Pat? as you can see theyre the ducksfrigginknuts ubloodybeaut newys! I'll be using them mostly out in the bush so I reckon that cross bracing would be a pain on the uneven ground

So I went past Bunnys today in the sigma thinking being so small I would be safe...

BUT... when I got home I found these jumped out of the back and into the shed!!... the log jaws yelled that his brother was coming to stay next Friday and the engineers jaws muttered that his sister pair would be here the same day!

Bloody invasion of the Tritons!!

oh and the 1.2t crane of course to lift the tools onto the mobile bases... gotta watch me ol back eh?

Up to Carbetex on Tues next!! Whahoo... actually theres not much left I need to get really so maybe a few router bits and blades possibly an 8in grinder but thats abou... mmm whadda bout...?? nah!! shes all good!
