Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Owen H. ★★★★★

The ball bearings make a huge difference, my workpieces spin without any marking now. It holds stock up to an inch securely and was simple to clamp onto the lathe.

Sophia ★★★★★

Got this set up on my mini lathe last night, and the ball bearings make a noticeable difference—no more scuffed workpieces. The clamping felt secure even with a slightly irregular 7/8" rod.

Edward V. ★★★★★

The clamping mechanism locks down solid, and the ball bearings really do glide smoothly over the workpiece without leaving those ugly spiral marks. I've run a few 3/4" steel rods through it and it holds them steady as can be.
