I've been using the wood worm screws for many years now and I use the small jaws smaller bowls and the larger one for large bowls at 71 years old and have started turning at the age of 12 not saying I've used them that long but from the time they came out until now and I'm on my lathe at least 3 times a week once you learn there capabilities you will enjoy turning even more!
That's amazing to have been able to start at such a young age and stick with it all those years! That's awesome, I'm at that stage where I want to turn as big as possible, I'm sure it will subside eventually 😀
I use stainless screws for my faceplate with square drivers (easier to use) I have never had much luck with the screw, especially with green wood as it can easily continue turning but not lock in place. I have used 5/16 drill bits on my Nova and it seemed loose. Thanks for running us through the various screws.
Well friends, what yalls thoughts on the woodworm screw? Did i help at all or did i reaffirm the "screw that screw" feeling😂😂😂 let me know your thoughts. Please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE and leave some COMMENTS below! Thanks friends!
Lots of good info here thanks for making this, don’t worry about struggling to explain some of it. the camera just does that to people lol. The Chinese Amazon chuck I bought came with one of these but the threads are flat for some reason. You ever run into that?
Yeah I'm too critical on myself and just need to keep it to myself lol! The vinox screw i have is kind of weird in that the threads are flatish but angled downward. I like my Nova one so much I thought I lost it and ordered a replacement off Amazon. I now have like 5 of them and they are stashed everywhere lol!
I enjoyed the common sense approach to the wood worm screw. You have a calming way of presenting information. Nice.
I have both types of jaws on different chucks but never even considered that. Thank you
@luv5252 no problem friend! I have a 14" swing lathe and with the 4" jaws and tailstock engaged i have no problem or worries turning 13x6" blanks.
