Nice to see a new wave of younger turners come in to the hobby.
@@robertcornelius3514 thank you so much Robert. Really appreciate🤝
Cheers,

Thank you so much for posting all these videos!! I really enjoy your humor and your passion for your craft is palpable. I would love to hear how you got into wood turning and any tips you might have for those starting out and aiming at doing wood turning for a living. Ps i was a nurse for 17 years and think it's awesome that you were able to try something different! Cheers from Canada
Thanks for sharing. Oftentimes other wood turners do not show the differences in the chucks they use.
I'm glad you found the video useful, Michael. I enjoy showcasing the different tools I use and sharing my journey. Hopefully, it helps or inspires someone to give our beloved craft a go! Hope the weather is treating you nicely.
Cheers,
Kez
Nicely done Kerry! I’ve heard Raffan say that he designed the step jaws for Vicmark in his videos. I also have a homemade version of the Glen Lucas remounting plate, used it tonight in fact to true up the tenon & backside of a 12” oak bowl. Very handy as you mentioned.
Nicely done Kerry. Thanks for the mention.
Thank you, Glenn. Means a lot mate.
Cheers,
Kez
Well put together Kerry and full of info for any new turner and old boys like me. Thank you cobber.🤠
Thanks for watching, mate. It's good to have old boys like you watching along. Really appreciate it.
Kez
@@KerryCorney 🤠
Excellent info for newer turners.👌
Cheers mate. Glad you found it useful. Please let me know if you need me to cover anything🤝
Kezza.
Such a brilliant input into different chunks nice one mate
Thanks, mate. I left the Jacob’s chuck out because, well, it’s pretty self-explanatory. Thanks for the support, Robert.
Cheers,
Kez
Great video kerry,
I love the vast array of Jaws that vicmarc make, I got a record power sc4 for Christmas and the Jaws available aren't as much as vicmarc. I love the remounting plate from Glenn lucas I'll definitely be doing that.
I'm still doing recesses on my bowls vs tenon, do you have a video on tenon vs mortise mate? I did search but couldn't see one.
Definitely feel a kerry Corney online school of Woodturning is something you should consider, your very easy to understand and your tone and personality is amazing 👌👌
@@Aaronmckeownwoodturning Wow! Thanks so much for the support, mate-really appreciate it. 🤝 I was thinking of making every second video a download or pay to watch on my website or something. You have me inspired. 👌
I’ve made videos on tenon removal, but I turn all my bowls and vessels with tenons. When it comes to mortises, I use them for platters and other flat pieces. Hope that helps, mate!
Cheers,
Kez
Great video brother! Thanks for doing what you do!
Thank you for your continued support brother. Means the world to me.
Kezza
Great explanations. Thank you for sharing.
Cheers, Doug. Let me know if you need to make a video on something.
Thanks mate.

Cheers, Kez! Nice tour and description of your chucks and why you have each one. I currently only have one chuck and do get tired of exchanging the chuck jaws and cole jaws when needed. I have used the faceplate more than the wood screw but want to try using the wood screw more.
I also made a few sanding disks that fit my chuck jaws with different grits as well as a stepped drum sander that also fits the jaw chuck. I hope to add a 100mm chuck to what I have now. I am just getting started and working on a semi-fixed income so it will take a while to be better equipped.
It definitely speeds things up having multiple chucks and jaws set up for the pieces you make most often.
The wood screw is super effective and efficient, but I use it in the chuck rather than as a standalone screw chuck.
Those sanding discs for the chuck sound like a great idea-anything that gets the job done! 👌
Thanks for the support, mate.

Thank you Kerry. The video quality of this episode seems better than in the past. Have you changed cameras? Or perhaps cleaned the lens!!! Thanks again.
@@waldocorsair thanks for noticing mate. New camera. Trying to get that 6k footage for this close up shots.
I appreciate that mate.

Nice. I'm in the process of acquiring Vicmarc Jaws, and they're own Chucks. Hopefully you haven't had the same issue I've encountered with the jaw screws, where they either end up with the alan key area rounding out, or simply snapping the head off. But that's not Vicmarc's fault, as I'm sure they don't make those screws. They're easy enough to acquire from a nut & bolt shop, but to mitigate that, I've been opting to have a chuck for each of the type of jaws I use. It means more expense, but when you're doing production work and need to change jaws depending on the work, it saves a lot of time.
@@DiemenDesign You’re 100% spot on! The time saved will easily pay for a couple of new chucks.
Also, if your screws get stuck, grab a round bar the same size as the head (not the Allen key slot), line it up with the head, and give it a swift tap with a mallet-that’ll free it up. 👌😎
Cheers mate.

@@KerryCorney I've tried doing that to remove screws, didn't work, probably me. I ended up drilling into the head of the screw and using an ezy-out. All good. I tell ya, I really gotta get doing videos again, just been so busy with the farm and fixing my house.
@ I hear ya mate. It’s a struggle. I have to dial back the editing to make life easier for myself. Marathon not a race. But I’m going to start just making simple videos of day to day stuff in the shed. What’s your thoughts on that?
@@KerryCorney Could be interesting, I'd definetly give them a watch and a thumbs up. Like Richard Raffans videos you always little gems and tidbits that help. Like the cork on the bowl jaws, I'll be doing that for sure. Though lately, I've taken Richards lead on sizing a foot that the jaws can close and hold without marring the timber. Been collecting Richards books lately, currently reading the Art of Bowl Making, very interesting so far.
Kerry, you should come to Waco, TX USA the last week of August for the SWAT symposium. I would love to meet you and talk shop. It is the largest gathering of turners in the US. I am going to recommend my club sponsor you if you’re willing.
Screw chuck Kezza, what about a screw chuck 😂 I know ya talked of the worm screw that goes in your standard jaws, and maybe most like that coz ya can go from screw to flipping and grippin a foot quickly without changing chucks. For some reason I dony like that, even tho it means changin a chuck 🤷😂
Not tryna take away from Kezza's VERY informative video, but if ya wanna make a screw chuck it's really quite simple, it's the first thing I made on my lathe. Take a standard faceplate ya get with any lathe, screw on a crossgrain (bowl) blank, spin it up, turn it round and face it. Then chuck up a drill in your tailstock (one to suit a rough screw, I used a hex head lag bolt) making sure the drill is matched to the shank, not the threads (so the threads bite). Drill through your centre and send the lag bolt home, I used epoxy to stop it turnin...,.. if it's able turn it can unwind when ya take the chuck off. The blank on mine (turned finished size) is about 30mm thick (1 1/4 ISH) and the screw protrudes about 25mm (1inch), I use MDF spacers to shorten the screw if needed. If using MDF, drill the hole slightly oversized so the screw doesn't thread on it, and countersink both sides....... If the MDF can screw onto it, it'll leave MDF fibres on the screw and your part might not butt up solid against the face of the screw chuck.
Very informative; thanks for sharing, mate! Screw chucks, like everything, have their place as a great tool, but I’ve never really needed one. With extra steps involved with it as well, when I can just keep one chuck on the lathe and get straight to back to turning.
Cheers mate🤝

Hey kez I have to tell ya that I just came across a video about wood lathes of 2025 best bang for the buck.
When they got to the Vicmark they said "this lathe is used by wood turning legends Richard Raffin. Some other guy (don't remember the name sorry). And Kerry Corney!
Are you aware of this video?
Hey mate, can’t say that I have heard about it? Where is the video? Could you please send it to me?
😎🤝
As a fellow turner, a guy can’t have too many chucks. It’s a pain to swap jaws to fit the operations you are doing.
I couldn't agree more! Nothing worse than constantly swapping jaws over. If you added up the time wasted over a year using just one chuck, having two more would easily pay for themselves.
Cheers mate.
Kezza
Thanks for the tip for modifying Cole’s Jaws. I have a set mounted to a scroll chuck that gets the job done but the bumpers were always too short to grip a turning so today I purchased 8 pieces of 6.0-1 x 40mm machine screws and a 6.0-1 tap to clean and dress the holes then fitted 36mm of rubber fuel line to the screws and bingo was able to remove the tenon from a potpourri bowl turning. Also added pieces of cork to protect the bowl finish.
Kerry, you should come to Waco, TX USA the last week of August for the SWAT symposium. I would love to meet you and talk shop. It is the largest gathering of turners in the US. I am going to recommend my club sponsor you if you’re willing.
Thanks mate. Wow!
I have only watched videos on YT about SWAT. I would love the opportunity.
Cheers mate.
