 No BeefMar 10, 2006
This product has undersized screws to hold in jaws. One of them was over tightened at the factory and could not be loosened. I had to be drill it out. The tightening handles are inadequate and bent during the first few uses. Nice price,but not good quality.

 first time chuck userJan 08, 2006
i have a jet mini lathe and considered the nova chuck for it at around $120.00, but the cost cinvinced me to try the psi. it worked very well was precise and tight gripping once i got the hang of it. well worth the money. still need to master using it for the ouside grip mode.

 Solid Chuck but ....Apr 07, 2005
Ok I bought this chuck to use with my new Jet Mini lathe. Fits great with little work. It came in a very simple box with a one page diagram of the lathe. There were no instructions of any sort about the dozen parts that came with it. It was covered in preservative oil to keep it from rusting ... thickly covered. (remove this because it will bleed into your wood)
The reason this gets 2 stars is because when I use the breaking bars that tighten the chuck they bent pretty badly. I figure after about half a dozen uses they will be bent to the point that I will be forced to find new bars.
Poor quality parts never impress me .... You get what you pay for with this one. Cheap price ... cheap piece.
