What are the applications using a Jacobs chuck in the headstock? I have a keyed JC with a 3MT that works great in the tail stock. I’m thinking about buying another chuck, keyless, with a 2MT to use in the headstock mainly to do small parts, finials, etc. I figured the drill chuck would also give me the flexibility to drill. At that point I thought, "Why?, Drill what?" Should I instead buy a collet set?
Can you turn using a JC as a turning chuck? Can a JC be a substitute for collet chuck?
What is everyone’s thoughts?
