Hi Tom,
Is this the set made for the VM100 0r 120?

 

[John Dillon]

Is this different than what they sell now? i looked at the Craft Supplies web-site and they list a set for the VM 100 ($56.95) and another set that fits the VM120-M150?

Should have mentioned I have a VM100 and a VM120 so I'm sorta interested

 

[Dave Landers]

Interesting. They must have changed something with one of the chucks.

I have 2 VM120s. one is old and one I got a few years ago, all the jaws I have for those fit both chuck bodies.
I have 1 VM100 from a few years ago.
The jaws I have for my VM100 and VM120 are different from each other, the 100 jaws don't fit on the 120 and vice-versa.
Both the registration ring and the hole spacing are different.


VM120 jaw top, VM100 jaw bottom.

I'm not trying to disagree or argue, but I am genuinely interested if there is a different version of the 100 or 120 chuck body than what I have that would allow interchanging their jaws...

Thanks Dave, Interesting, I have three Vicmarcs. A 120, a 150, and an older model that uses tommy bars instead of the hex key. All three can use the same jaws with what looks to me to be 27mm hole spacing. I don't own a 100, but based my assumption on the Packard listing.

Tom - I'm looking at the Packard website and see a set of Vicmarc step jaws for a VM 100, but I don't see the 120/150 set (Craft Supplies sells). Maybe I'm not looking in the right place. Not sure where you are seeing information for jaws that fit a 100 and 120.

 

[Tom Albrecht]

I am sorry, I misinterpreted the site. These fit my 120 and 150. I don’t have a 100. As Dave noted above, they are different.
The mounting holes on these are 27mm center-center.

 

[Bill Blasic]

The Packard catalog shows that these are 2 different jaws sets for the 100 and the 120. $56.95 and $66.95. My different Vicmarc chucks take different jaws they are not interchangeable.

 

[Tom Albrecht]

Bill, which “different Vicmarc chucks” are you referring to? The 100 and the 120? We have already covered that. The jaw slides-- the 4 moving parts mounted in the scroll mechanism-- may not be interchangeable between all models, but Vicmarc jaws with the 27mm centered mounting holes that are screwed to the slides certainly are, as I noted above.

The Vicmarc website differentiates the jaws that fit the Models 120, 140, and 150 between those that fit the Models 90 and 100.
