Interesting Chuck design

[VicParticipant @vic]

This is one of Axminster Tools New Woodturning Chucks. I took this screenshot from the video and couldn’t help noticing the detent balls and corresponding recesses in the scroll wheel. I’ve not seen anything like this in a chuck before.

I think a Five Year Guarantee would give me “peace of mind”, not “piece of mind”.

If to goes wrong in the five years they would get a “ piece of my mind”.

I cannot understand the need for any indexing with a chuck that needs to be tightened until it grips on any diameter in it’s capacity. Fine quality and made in the UK to boot.

Some Axminster chucks have a lifetime warranty.
