Good info, thanks. I found that if i get a catch, the wormscrew can be pulled out of center a little and it's difficult to get it back right. And as you said with vibration it can come loose. To reduce this i fitted a hardwood disc onto the wormscrew and turned it like a dovetail that was a perfect fit for the jaws. So now the wormscrew is held by the flats and the jaws. It runs true even after a catch!
I've been using the wood worm screws for many years now and I use the small jaws smaller bowls and the larger one for large bowls at 71 years old and have started turning at the age of 12 not saying I've used them that long but from the time they came out until now and I'm on my lathe at least 3 times a week once you learn there capabilities you will enjoy turning even more!
That's amazing to have been able to start at such a young age and stick with it all those years! That's awesome, I'm at that stage where I want to turn as big as possible, I'm sure it will subside eventually 😀
@@RayApodaca-DacaTimberworks Stay with it I did have a dry spell for a couple of years maybe once or twice a month on the lathe because of work and raising two kids took up a lot of my time but when they were teenagers and off doing their stuff I had more time on my hands and got back into it starting at a young age was due to my grandfather my mother would have lost it if she knew he was letting me run his lathe LoL i also have his old lathe that I use once in a while but use My Grizzly 16 inch mostly keep it as a hobby and don't try to make money with it because chances are that you will get sick of it I give my stuff away as it was every were around the house I have sold some stuff but don't try to make it fun!
@jonperley9722 hahaha that's too funny about Gams. I feel you on selling aspect of things. I'm pretty sure if I was a production turner and my family depended on it I might lose the passion for it like many other jobs. I try to sell some stuff here and there at craft shows to buy more tools but that's about it. I work alot of hours as a crane operator, raise my family and turn when I can and then share it with yall.
I use stainless screws for my faceplate with square drivers (easier to use) I have never had much luck with the screw, especially with green wood as it can easily continue turning but not lock in place. I have used 5/16 drill bits on my Nova and it seemed loose. Thanks for running us through the various screws.
Thanks for checking it out. I wonder what the variable is where we're different because I turn mainly green wood with my woodworm screw? Wood type possibly? I turn almost all domestic US hardwoods that I scavenge.
Lots of good info here thanks for making this, don’t worry about struggling to explain some of it. the camera just does that to people lol. The Chinese Amazon chuck I bought came with one of these but the threads are flat for some reason. You ever run into that?
Yeah I'm too critical on myself and just need to keep it to myself lol! The vinox screw i have is kind of weird in that the threads are flatish but angled downward. I like my Nova one so much I thought I lost it and ordered a replacement off Amazon. I now have like 5 of them and they are stashed everywhere lol!
Well friends, what yalls thoughts on the woodworm screw? Did i help at all or did i reaffirm the "screw that screw" feeling😂😂😂 let me know your thoughts. Please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE and leave some COMMENTS below! Thanks friends!
I tried explaining this in the video. My intent was discussion, my lathe was even un plugged. We had a weired warm day so my flannel went buttoned. If I would've caught it in the act I would've handled it right then. Just goes to show how easy it is to make mistakes. Thanks for checking it out anyways 😅
@GavinConwayWoodworkBBQ cool, I almost scrapped that whole portion of the video, I really was torn on keeping it in. You have an interesting name, hopefully you have a channel to check out because I love turning and BBQ!

I enjoyed the common sense approach to the wood worm screw. You have a calming way of presenting information. Nice.
Thanks so much for the kind words I really do appreciate them.

I have both types of jaws on different chucks but never even considered that. Thank you
@luv5252 no problem friend! I have a 14" swing lathe and with the 4" jaws and tailstock engaged i have no problem or worries turning 13x6" blanks.

Good info thanks. BUT why do you wear loose clothing whilst working on a lathe. As a newbie watching you like that is plain bonkers. 🤪🤪
