1/2 inch drill chuck, 10.3.2009

Reviewer: John Darovec (Bradenton, FL)

I had been hesitant to get a drill chuck, but I wish now that I had gotten it sooner. It works like a dream. I'm glad that I got the 1/2 inch, so that it will hold all of our bits.

There are many reasons to like the chuck. It is heavy-weight and well balanced; the tapers fit tight and the jaws hold 1/8" - 1/2" bits without slipping. It easily installs and releases from the tailstock. It is accurate enough to drill into turned pieces and opening up 1/2" holes for hollowing. The chuck is an excellent accessory and a real bargain for its price. The only disadvantage I noticed is that the tightening collar tends to slip when tightened, but this seems to have no effect on the gripping power.

If you are having difficulty drilling a perfectly centered hole in pen blanks, this is the product for you. Attach it to the dead center and clamp the blank in the chuck and presto, a perfectly centered hole!

A Necessary Addition, 9.22.2009

Reviewer: Joseph Crivelli (Hicksville, NY)

The 1/2" Drill Chuck #2MT works great with my new Jet JWL-1220VW Lathe. Finish and fit are perfect! On the 1st day that I had the lathe, I tried drilling a spindle blank with a simple twist drill. No problem! A week later I put a 5" long spindle in my scroll chuck and hollowed it with a 1 1/2" Forstner bit. Worked like a charm! I would recommend this accessory to any turner.

This is a great addition to my lathe. I use it a lot and do most of my drilling with this tool.

Chuck was a better product than expected for the price. It was better constructed than the one purchased before from another company.

Drill Chuck is Great Addition to Turning Accessories, 6.23.2009

Reviewer: David Martin (Holderness, NH)

I really recommend the 1/2" Drill Chuck. It saves a lot of time in making vases, bowls, goblets and other wood turnings, by drilling out the inside. Well worth the price, and is excellent quality!

Reviewer: Julie Douglas (Vancouver, WA)

This is a great 1/2 drill chuck. It functions very well and is made of heavy metal. I was very pleased with this chuck when I was using it to hold a bit and turning a pen on my lathe. thank you psi

Great value but NOT Keyless, 6.9.2009

Reviewer: Matt Geweke (TUCSON, AZ)

Solid and Heavy chuck works great but is not keyless as advertised. If you only hand crank the chuck the bit will slip so it does take just a little bit of key to keep things tight. The value is great; the chuck and mortise included all in one unit, all in one price.

Good value - well made., 3.14.2009

Reviewer: Robert Bohn (Yulee, FL)

Excellent drill chuck - accurate, heavy duty, high quality addition to any shop. Use it daily and get dead-on bores every time.

Reviewer: david illingworth (Confluence, PA)

Just what I wanted to drill out bowl turning block's so there's no more digging in of a chisel.

Reviewer: Joe Uhranowsky (South Abington Township, PA)

Solid product. Works great for holding small items.

Reviewer: Daniel Harris (Gearhart, OR)

A good price for 1/2" chuck but the one I received has a run-out of .0037" 3 1/2 thousandths, expected it to be less than 0.001". Originally planned to use it for trueing up small metal parts but too much run-out. Should be O.K. for 1/2" wood turnings.
