Pin chucks
Can you buy pin chucks or are they normally home made. Has any one made one or used one.

Never take good advice, if you think you know better.

Re: Pin chucks
Having done some googling there is apparently a woodworking tool called a pin chuck, which is a spindle with a flat like the images above, on which is placed a pin. This is inserted into a hole and when rotated in a lathe, the pin rolls off centre to lock the work piece in place.
Never heard or seen it before.
I use a number of the eclipse machinists pin vices, very useful I find.

Re: Pin chucks
