[crw-talk] Lathe chuck on WEN mini lather

[Egan, Richard]

Bob:

That chuck only weighs 4 pounds or so, and should be fine on that lathe. You will need to have the correct size insert to fit the spindle.

Does anyone know if a Supernova2 chuck with jaws is too heavy for a WEN lathe, 1/3 hp? Would its use damage the lathe headstock bearings?
Thanks.  -raasch
