    Searching 4-jaw lathe chuck with dovetail jaws for M16x1.5 spindle thread

    in Modeling tools and Workshop Equipment

    Posted

    Thank you to everyone who showed interest in solving the problem. It's unfortunate that so far no company seems to have shown interest in producing M16 4-dovetail-jaw chucks that are self-centering. It's not possible (for me) to find adapters M16->M33 either. It seems that either the safety risk has to be taken, or a specialized wood lathe has to be bought.
    I wish you a nice day.

    Searching 4-jaw lathe chuck with dovetail jaws for M16x1.5 spindle thread

    Dear forum,
    I am searching for a method to roughly work on wood on my miniature lathe.
    It has an unconventional sizing, I've read so at least, with a M16 spindle threading (? not an English speaker, I hope I am using terminology correctly).
    To work on wood safely, I would like a 4 jaw chuck on which I can mount dovetail jaws.
    While these chucks are available for M33, I cannot find them for M16.
    Is there a website that sells them which I have not been able to find?

    I would appreciate help, even if it's just a very quick answer.
    Best regards,
    Oliver
