Um yeah I would say so - if your lathe swing will allow you to spin a 10 inch bowl , then a 10 inch cole jaw should fit nicely too. - That is, assuming your cole jaw sets are specifically made to fit your chuck... I got an 8 inch set for Barracuda chuck, it won't fit my nova chuck or my old no-name chuck... but wor4ks fine on my Barracuda chuck.
Yes a 10” Cole jaw should fit on a 12” lathe.
Stan, you may have captured the flavor of forums in one malapropism. Plenty of badvice offered online, free of charge. (Sorry, folks, just couldn't help myself on this hanging curveball)
Is lath a Canadian pronunciation of our lathes?
yes but probably my bad spelling
I have a Nova chuck so should fit
Good ole Mrs. Malprop.
