Eli B. ★★★★★

The 0.63-inch through hole is just right for my smaller projects, and the self-centering action locks onto stock with zero wobble. Swapping out the jaws takes a minute, but once it's set, the grip is rock-solid.

Olivia F. ★★★★★

Swapping between the inside and outside jaws was much easier than I expected, and the self-centering action is dead-on accurate. My first few test cuts came out perfectly concentric.

Charlotte ★★★★★

Picked this up for my mini lathe and the self-centering action is dead-on, even with oddly shaped stock. The included inside and outside jaws give it great versatility right out of the box.
