Steve this was a very enjoyable video. You explained everything that I was looking for. Thank you for sharing

Every wood turner needs a longsworth chuck really nice builds

I wouldn't worry too much about time when it comes to making tools Stephen...it's worth it. Man, you did that project justice. Well executed and inspiring as ever.

I just finished making this same one out of 3/4” maple plywood and 22” diameter. Your instructions were excellent. Turned out nice. Thank you!

Thanks Stephen! I built the smaller one with 6 holds like yours as my lathe only has a 14" swing. You made me think a little to convert the 8 to 6 holds. That's what makes a Great Teacher!

Thank you for taking the time Stephen to make this video. One of my next projects!

Thank you Stephen for sharing this project. I do appreciate all the thought and long hours that was put into it. Take care

Stephen, I need to build a Longworth Chuck for my workshop so I decided to come to the guy that always shoots straight. Easy to understand and can be followed easily, so I came to you. I've always found that you give the direct scoop. Thank for your videos. Best regards. Richard ....

Great job on the Longworth Chuck. You make so everyone can understand how to build their own. Keep up the good work. Spence

Thanks for your video . This is the clearest and simplest explanation of how to build one of these that I have seen. Now I feel confident in building one for myself. Thank you.

another great tool that I will build also. I built a vacuum chuck, from your video build and it works great. Now I will build me one or two longworths for my Grizzly lathe also. Thank you Stephen very Much for all you do on utube to help us work on the lathe safer and better. Please Keep up the good works. Michael

just finished my longworth chuck following your easy directions, my advice to any one thinking about one is to measure thrice cut once, mine is as smooth as silk and puts a smile on my face, thank you Mr. Ogle

Very ingenious project. Makes me wish I had an ability to design jigs like all you guys out there. Your videos are very informative. Thanks for the time to share your knowledge. Danny

great video, like that little center finder as well

Steve, I love your KZfaq channel! Thanks for being so informative and sharing your techniques! After watching your channel all last winter, I picked up a lathe, nova G3 chuck and some chisels and did some turning! I went right for the bowl and to my surprise, it turned out! I have been really enjoying turning and watching your videos and just want to say thank you for being an inspiration. Take care!

Very good visuals on jigs used. Thanks very much.

I like the way you made your chuck! Well done video!

Thanks you are a good teacher from timberbuckets wva. Drew it up last night just need to slow my lathe down now 1750 rpm hope I can put a bucket on it to turn the inside I do all the work now by hand no power tools once again nice

Thanks Stephen when I do build one I shall be using your video ! Excellent work sir! Easy to understand and functional.

Excellent build, Stephen. Can't wait to see you use them. Lee

I appreciate your sharing the Longworth chuck with us. You gave very good directions and showed the project work quite well. I do intend to make the smaller version for my Jet 14" machine. I believe this type of chuck will hold better than the Cole jaws. Thanks and God Bless. Will from Albuqquerque.

Nice one Stephen ,been meaning to build one myself ,think I will now

Great job Stephen, nice build.

Thank you for a great video. Made mine today and it went together without a hitch. You did a perfect job showing how to. Thanks again.

Great build Stephen. Two beauties . It will Interesting to see them in use some day. Well done

Very nice job. You out did yourself on this project.

Excellent build video Stephen. very informative and packed with important detail and techniques. Really looking forward to some monster bowls from you in the future :) Take care my friend Mike

Awesomely done video Stephen. You have a good way of explaining all the details. I have decided that its an item I cant do without. I'm starting on one today that will be 24 inch diameter so maybe i can get about 22" bowl in it. Thanks for such an informative video.

Can't wait to see them in operation. Very interesting.

Hi Stephen Great tutorial on building a Longworth Chuck. Thanks for sharing. Pete

Just found your channel , your directions to make the Longworth chuck are so easy to follow. I am making the same, one large and one smaller version. I've only just started to do the wood turning and I am trying to make everything I need made .Thanks for the info and hello from England.

These are awesome. I think that I will eventually be making one of these for myself. Thanks for the video.

You are a very talented craftsmna, really enjoy your work. Thanks for sharing.

Love your explanations and easy to follow directions on making this.... I just made one to fit on my lathe with 12" swing... Saved me lots of money, with purchase of some basic hardware, birch plywood, and rubber stoppers from a local brewing company, cost me about 40$ compared to buying one online.... Love that I have something for my lathe I have made in my shed.... Now I'm seriously sizing up your sharpening system.... Hmmmm 😉 thanks for the great videos...

Keep the great videos coming and I am looking forward to seeing you use the Longworth chucks.

Looks like it works really smooth Stephen, great job! Can't wait to see one of them in action.

Stephen your videos just keep getting better both content and presentation! I have no question about building a Longworth Chuck after watching this one. Great project and terrific video!

That's awesome Steven! Thanks for this instructional; can't wait to build one too.

Really nice instructional video Mr Ogle, very impressed!!

Great build, Stephen. I can't wait to build me one.

Fine! Now I have ANOTHER project to build. ;-D I can see many advantages to the shop built Cole Jaws I made. Much more range in the size bowls it will handle and no need to move the rubber bumpers for each size. Great video and very clear description of each step. Well done.

Really good Job and nice instructions Thanks

Steven, that was awesome. I'm going to build one now. thank you for the awesome instructions and for posting. peace, Jeremy

Thanks for posting this Steven. I always look for new videos from you. Have learned a lot from watching.thankstom

Very cool. can't wait to see you use them. Cheers.

excellent video and you did a very good job of making them... I look forward to seeing them in use, also I hope to make my own one day... thanks for sharing... cheers my friend...

Fantastic, very resourceful.

Really enjoyed watching this project Stephen, well narrated & detailed. You'll have many hours of use & enjoyment with these I'm sure. I have to use Cole jaws as my headstock doesn't rotate on my Jet. Thanks again for sharing & regards as always ......... Geof Harris (England).

nicely done Stephen

Excellent video, great for banjo pots.

Nice job Stephen, I think a small one is in my future.

Nice Job! Awesome build. I think I'm gonna make one for myself! Appreciate the content

Very well done.

Turned out great.

Great video Stephen. I'll be making one of these sometime soon!

Great video Stephen! as to yet I'm unsure if I need one but if I do, this where I'll come back to. Enjoyed the whole process and expertly explained build!Take care, Bram.

Stephen very nice as always, it's been on my to do list to make. You make it look much easier especially the layout. Will check out the tramel next. Get a big bowl chucked up for us to see.

Fantastically beautiful job!

I really liked your video. I have wanted to know how to make one. Thanks for another good job. I really enjoy your videos.

Awesome work Stephen!! The chucks came out great. I really like your style of wood working and your videos are very informative. I have learned a lot. Just beginning with turning. Keep the videos coming! Jeff

Great job...I sure need one of these!

Hi Stephen I have been a long time subscriber and watched many of your videos several times - always pick up on another little nuance that helps me. It's been quite some time since I have seen you post a new video and would love to see you back on KZfaq. Any chance you will be back on video in the future - I certainly hope so. I love your work and your video style and hope to see much more. Sincerely Dennis Beamish Cambridge Ontario Canada

Great project and video again! Hubert, Germany

This was very good video thanks

Now take the exact same design as your circle cutting jig for the bandsaw and use it on a table saw. When spinning the board you raise the blade a bit at a time until you cut through the board. This will give you a smooth finished edge that is square. Just a different way to skin the cat but my choice of methods. I have a power feeder that I use to spin the board for added safety.

Thank you for your sharing of this devise very helpful....well alright

That was great Stephen. You explained that very well. Thank you very much . Kind Regards Col

Very nice job.

stephen nice work .

Thanks for sharing

My hat off to you my friend. Great video and great build. Now to see it in action LOL.I am sure that is already in the works son I wait patiently my friend.FYI I have no clue as to what's going on with KZfaq and Google. for some reason I don't get any notifications of my friends uploads, not even mine to say my video was ready. I hope to get this fixed soon.Till next time... Take care and be safe.

excellent video thanks stephen Barry

Great job Stephen I really like way it turned out. You know I he last comment I left I was thinking you were making Cole jaws. Take care my friend and do a kindness Mark

muito obrigado pelo video eu gosto muito de ver o seu trabalho parabens nota 10 carlos .

great job!!!

Thanks man!

Man I really enjoyed this video!!!

Enjoyed your video. Hope the information I sent you awhile back was helpful. Thanks for sharing.

Good job

Thanks for the video! Would have been nice to see you demo of removing a bowl bottom.

GOOD JOB QUITE CLEARTOM

Looking forward to the Big Bowl turning. You have a safety warning in this video, I hope you take your own advice. Bigger Bowls store more energy, I for one don't want Stephen hurt. Wondering how you are going to set up the tool rest w/ the head turned? GL Oh great video.

Good job.

Super

Do you have any videos where you're using one of these chucks? I'd like to see one. I plan on making me one but I'll probably only use it for glue up and stacking rings etc.

Great video, I have one question. Is there a reason for doing one slot at a time? Couldn't you do all the slots 1/8 deep, then lower the bit? That way you lower the bit only 8 times rather than 8 times per slot

Nice!

Great video Stephen! Quick question for you, the jig you made for your router, the trammel, how did you get the dimensions of the trammel to accurately cut the archs? The distance between the pin and the router head, is it simply the distance between the inner and outer line?

Great build Stephen, that is one large chuck!! I tried making one of these a couple of years ago, my router died on me mid way cutting the groves, and that was it, never had the chance to replace it or finish it. Yours sure look perfect :) How large are you planning to turn over board with that large one? The smaller one looks something I could use on my smaller lathe, yeah, I should start working on mine, I've been working on jigs all week...

Stephen, you NEED to check the volume on your intro music, versus your voice. I need to REALLY dial back the intro music, and when you start talking, I can BARELY hear you. Or, intro is at a 9.5, voice is at a 2.5. Stephen, I wouldn't comment, if I didn't care. KEEP the good stuff coming! steve

thanks

Looks very good, have you tried either chuck out yet?

great video....are you using your bluetooth headphones as your microphone to make your videos? I'm an old machinist, worked for about 10 years on manual lathes and mills until I had to start using CNC machines.....Never heard of or used a Longworth Chuck. How well do they hold the work? Hope you are making a video with one of your new chucks.

good job my friend, im going to make one, but i noticed the smaller one only has six slides is there a reason for this? also what is the jig you have hanging on the side of your shelf above the light switch behind the bandsaw? as always "turn on" hubie

A 20" bowl might take some extra planning. For instance how would you lift such a massive blank to mount it on the lathe? You might need some help...or a cherry picker engine hoist. ;-)

Can you tell me how I can get longer rubber? “I don’t know what to call them”. Holders? . For my longworth chuck.

Stephen, I just watched your video on production of a Longworth Chuck. Where did you get the tachometer for the lathe?

Love the video! I was wondering if MDF would work or if you think actual birch plywood is needed

hello, ? for you. love your videos by the way, thanks for sharing. I just boutique an older delta lathe with a gap bed of 16" and plan on using the outboard side to turn big bowls. I will be trying to make this Longworth chuck as well. but to my ? the outboard tool rest I have to make and was wondering if you have a pic or any suggestions for me where to start thanks.

Gtrat job Stephen. How much does it actually increase your turning capacity? Keep it up buddy. Always a lesson learned while watching your videos.
