Lathe Tools
Our Easy Chuck™, Easy Jaws™ System, Aluminum Faceplates™, and Accessories keep you turning instead of wasting time looking for screws or slowing securing your work. Turn safely, turn efficiently, and upgrade today to the Easy way!
Made in America
The Easy Chuck System includes our Easy Chuck™ and Easy Jaws™, an innovative combination unlike any other on the market today. With patented Snap Lock Technology SLT™, it takes only seconds to install interchangeable jaws onto the chuck, giving you more time to turn. Manufactured with hardened and plated components inside and out, and machined to high tolerances, our rugged lathe products are the only ones you'll ever need.
And we've got lathe accessories for all your turning needs! Hold your bowl blanks securely on your lathe with our rugged anodized Aluminum Faceplates™. We offer many sizes and configurations, too, to fit all types of work, and when you add in our live center, cone set, and spindle adapter, turning is easier and more efficient.
Easy Chuck™
Quickly change your interchangeable jaws; mount and secure your work in seconds and get back to turning! Patented technology makes this the only chuck you'll ever need.
Made in America
Our feature-packed 4", 4-jaw Easy Chuck™ design keeps you focused on turning instead of managing your tools. Simply use the supplied ball end hex key, depress the keeper latch, slide each jaw off, then slip any size Easy Jaws™ into place. Listen for the snap and the jaw is locked into position and ready to use in 30 seconds or less. Ten Easy Jaw options accommodate small to larger size objects and grip in either expansion or contraction mode for greater versatility.
The integrated Zoom Ring™ lets you quickly adjust the jaw opening using only one hand, and you can fully open and fully close with just a few rotations. Once snug, tighten down your workpiece with our supplied T-Handle Hex.
Double-set screws let you secure the body to the spindle to allow for reverse sanding operations. The Easy Chuck™ includes one 3/8" dovetail Easy Jaws™ for gripping 3/8" tenons with an overall expansion of 2".
The Easy Chuck™ is available in four sizes (two Imperial; two Metric) to match your lathe size:
1"x 8 TPI (C1000)
1 1/4" x 8 TPI (C2000)
M33-3.5 (C3000)
M30-3.5 (C3030)
We also offer two Spindle Adapters sized to fit either the 1" x 8 or 1 1/4" x 8 chuck to quickly swap between these two lathe spindle threads.
Manufactured with hardened and plated components inside and out, machined to high tolerances, our rugged Easy Chuck™ is the only chuck you'll ever need.

Easy Faceplates
Our Aluminum Easy Faceplates have a shorter overall length to keep your work close to the headstock for less vibration and safer turning. Large screw holes mean more holding power and the laser-etched hub lets you quickly identify the thread size. Lock the set screw to run your lathe in reverse for sanding, so you can sand more efficiently and effectively. The 5/16" spanner hole makes removal quick and easy.
