Crossgrain bowls can be re-chucked in exactly the same way, but there are easier ways when it comes to removing or refining a foot or bowl base as you see in many of my bowl videos and kzbin.info/www/bejne/aneyf32QgchsZ80

As part of a project to make a bunch of turned storage jar lids for friends and family, I learned to use jam chucks routinely. Very easy and very useful. Thanks for the video. 👍

Very informative and a big help to me, Richard. I've always tried to avoid using jam chucks, but this explanation has shown that they're not as mysterious or daunting as I've found them to be.

Before the modern self-centring chucks came along I used a cup chuck, essentially a jam chuck, in production to make thousands of scoops. kzbin.info/www/bejne/emTdn3ptYtCmf9k Once you get the hang of jam chucks you'll find them enormously useful.

Great video. A couple points: creation of a burnishing line also burnished your work, which isn't desirable. I check fit with the lathe off. You can drill a hole through the chuck, and use a dowel as a knock-out rod. An ill-fitting jam chuck is a great way to split your work. I recently added an internal support dowel to a jam chuck (3/4" dowel friction-fit and adjustable with a hammer) to provide bottom support when removing a tenon with tailstock support. If using the tailstock, as the bottom thins, the tailstock pressure may become enough to split the bottom (learned the hard way).
@RichardRaffanwoodturning Жыл бұрын
If you go gently, burnishing the work shouldn't be too much of a problem, and I've rarely found it so. Go too hard and you have a none-too-decorative charred ring or burn mark. I avoid using knock out bars or sticks on finished work, mostly because of the risk of going through the bottom of something.

Basically the same but with tailcentre support. There are three variations in the recent crossgrain cylinders video kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4mbkIB6ZrRpoNU. Or at 21:09 in the pencil pot video kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2fTomWVmLZ0q6c you see an endgrtain version.

Well, after a month of home renovations I finally have time to watch some videos again! Very informative as always, many thanks! Are there types of wood you would advise not to use as jam chucks? Or certain types are fine, just not on some types? Thanks once more for putting your knowledge and skill and experience out there.
@RichardRaffanwoodturning Жыл бұрын
I prefer using softer woods so there's a bit of give in the surface, however slight. And if the wood's been felled a few months, so not dry but not wringing wet and spraying sap, the damp enhances the grip of the chuck.
@davidcochran9322 Жыл бұрын
Masterclass! Do you ever incorporate a central hole to allow the knockout bar to help removal?
@RichardRaffanwoodturning Жыл бұрын
Occasionally I have a knock-out hole,but not always in the centre. On larger chucks for bowls a slot near the rim does less damage to the bowl when leverage is required.

Woods slightly softer than the bowl or box you're mounting can give you a bit more leeway, but it's not critical.

Hi is there a way of making a wooden jam chuck for a pool cue i need to hold end of two piece to turn down for a new brass ferrel at tip end. I have made a steader from 3 bearing casters with rubber wheels any tips
@RichardRaffanwoodturning10 ай бұрын
I'd grip the very end of the ferrule end in pin jaws, refit the ferrule and be resigned to losing 15mm off the tip of the cue. And support the other end of the cue with the tailcentre. If it's a brass cylinder it'll fit over the conical centre. You shouldn't need a steady working close to the chuck.

There was a problem with the sound in some of the earlier videos, but you can adjust the volume.
