The expanding chuck works great, but the screw can be a problem. Just as other reviews mention, getting the screw out can ruin it. I found that if you leave appx 1" of a nub you can part off the project leaving the screw in the waste wood. Then you just take a wood chisel and carefully split the waste wood off from around the screw. Now you can reuse the undamaged screw chuck again.
I have a number of clocks to turn using 1 3/8" inserts. This chuck is perfect for this application. It securely holds my workpiece and runs true even after rechucking. My only complaint: I do have a little trouble getting the piece to release from time to time.
The expanding collet chuck works fine, but the center screw option is a pain. The screw will not center as there is so much slop in the threads and I'm not sure the hole is perfectly centered either.
I found that this chuck is an excellent addition to my lathe tools
This is such a great item that I own two.
