Title: 5 New Turned Strikers
Post by: blacky on February 24, 2008, 10:39:32 AM
I think I am getting better at turning strikers since I bought the chuck system. What do you guys think?

Top to Bottom: Silver Maple, Bocote, Mahogany, Canary and Sassafras.

Looking good Blacky. That chuck seems to have helped you out. Nice work.

What chuck did you buy to do those,? I am using a barracuda chuck and a collet chuck.

I bought the Barracuda2 chuck system and use the Pin Jaws plus I also mark the center on the other end and run my tailstock up there to stabilize the blank. It works for me.

I'd say you pretty much got the hang of it :congrats: Good looking strikers you turned out Blacky.

Thats how I was doing it too. I was just checking to see if you were doing it the same as I was and if  you had bought one of those oneway or vicmarc chucks. I was curious how they compare to the barracudas.
