Chucks
Product |
Description |
Price |
The straightline chuck allows for a wide variety of setup options including the dome/pencil chuck, the index head mounted flat, and soon an oblique attachment for the index head that will not only work with the straight line chuck but also the double eccentric chuck. On top of the long list of designs typically associated with the straightline chuck, it can also produce designs much like those associated with a reciprocator. This is the complete set up for the straight line chuck. It includes the saddle and the bed, but one may also want to add the index head which is not included. |
$500 |
|
|
This is the straight line chuck kit for the modular chuck system. If one already owns the dome chuck/double eccentric chuck this is all that is needed to be able to set up the straight line chuck. |
$250 |
|
The dome chuck allows domes and hemispheres to be shaped on the rose engine. In addition, a double eccentric chuck is included in this package. |
$775 |
The riser block allows 2 1/2" of diameter to be added to a piece being turned with the dome chuck. If the tailstock is necessary another riser can also be used to raise it to the same level. |
$65 |
|
This extra dovetail slide allows you to place the dome chuck on top of the double eccentric chuck allowing for both concave and convex patterns to be cut not only on the tops of objects but also on the sides. |
$200 |
|
The leveling or truing chuck is the traditional way of compensating for uneven materials or inaccuracies in work holding systems when moving from machine to machine. |

 Paper Chuck and Pen Holder |
The paper or Tympan chuck is made to hold a standard 4"x6" file card. The spring loaded penholder is 9/16" square so as to fit in the traditional toolbox as well as the modern tool holders and employs a standard Parker style ballpoint refill. The paper chuck is invaluable in understanding the effects of different rubbers on different rosettes as well as making templates for the setting up the dome chuck. | $225 Faceplate $50 |
| Segment Stop and Detent | The Segment Stop and Detent accessory consists a segment stop, two expanding collets, a Detent, and the unit's arm. Both the Segment Stop and the Detent are secured in the top of the unit's arm. The whole unit mounts on the base with a ½" bolt.
Segment Stop – The Segment Stop has two adjustable stops mounted top and bottom. The Segment Stop works by first fitting expanding collets in the 5/32" holes of the Index Plate. The collets are secured by means of a set screw in the collets. As the Index Wheel is turned the collets are stopped by either of the adjustable stops. Detent – The Detent is also secured at the top of the arm. The Detent is spring-loaded so its detent can either be inserted in the Index Wheel, or locked out when not in use. The Segment Stops unit will be extremely handy when using the Dome Chuck and Straight Line Chucks and there is a need to restrict movement of your work piece. Now that the Detent is more visible it will be easier to use than the current design. |
$350 |
| Overhead Drive System | The Overhead Drive System accessory is used to drive either of the three Cutting Frames i.e the Drilling Frame, and the two Universal Cutting Frames. The Overdrive Drive System can be moved to match any position of the cutting frame, and is quiet in use. The variable speed controller is used to match the type of cutting frame, type of ornamenting, and hardness of the work piece being ornamented.
The Drive System comprises of the following components: Sherline DC motor and controller, Motor Mount, Structural framing components and brackets, Shaft collar, Pulley block, 4 Locking handles, and 3 pieces. of 1" bar stock---36", 24", and 18". |

The L-W Tailstock Bed – the tailstock, like most tailstocks, is made to support long, slender objects such as pens or finials. The challenge of the rose engine is that the tailstock must rock with the headstock. The tailstock bed bolts to the headstock below the spindle in two different positions, and the tailstock, that is included with the Dome Chuck, is used to support the work piece. The higher position allows for objects of about 3 ¼" in diameter to be turned. The lower position requires two riser blocks (sold separately) to raise the tailstock, which then allows diameters of approximately 8 ¾" to be turned. The tailstock bed is adjustable so as to allow for perfect alignment. Included is a spring and washer. These are placed behind the tailstock dead center to allow for pumping operations. | $185 for the Tailstock Bed, spring and washer |
| Oblique Dome Chuck | The oblique dome chuck is designed to both "pitch" and "roll" giving adjustment in two directions. The indexer mounts to the short section of dovetail and can be tipped backwards while the base on which it rides can be swiveled around 360 degrees. Not only can complex shapes be developed but decorations can be applied to angular pieces as well. This tool also allows for multiple operations to be accomplished with only one chucking in many otherwise awkward situations. The tool mounts to the saddle of the double eccentric chuck. | $250. |
| Dovetail Tower | The dovetail tower is an upgrade that will allow for the lateral movement of a rubber along the tower while keeping the same relative position.
An additional rubber holder is available for more advanced usage of the rose engine. |
Dovetail Tower $475 * Extra Rubber Holder $150 * (as an upgrade to a new machine or with exchange on an existing machine) |
| Slow Speed Drive | The Slow Speed Drive is designed to automatically rotate the headstock at differing speeds, and can be engaged or disengaged using a simple clutch mechanism. The headstock can still be turned using the hand crank, however, when a slow speed is required the drive can be instantaneously engaged or disengaged. A variable speed control is used to control the speed of the motor. While the drive was specifically designed to work with the steel stand it can easily be fitted to a shop built base especially those made according to the L-W plans. Kit comes with a motor, variable speed control, clutch handle, locking mechanism, drive belt, and pulleys. |
$675 |
| Threading Attachment | The Threading Attachment mounts to the outboard end of the spindle by means of a collar and set screw and functions in the same way the traditional Holtzapffel lathes did by means of engaging a threading chaser into a threaded bobbin of the same pitch. The attachment comes with four sets of thread pitches or threads per inch (they are 4 tpi. , 8 tpi., 12 tpi, and 16 tpi.) and is capable of making one, two, three, or four lead threads which gives a wide variety of threading options. |
$375 60-degree thread mill cutter $35 3/8" end mill holder $35 |
| The Screw Feed Tailstock | The Screw Feed Tailstock – –this tailstock is an improved model from the tailstock provided with the Dome Chuck. The screw feed tailstock is supplied with an adjustable live center for easier alignment and better control. |
$155 |
| Expansion Chucks | The expansion chucks are designed to hold objects both internally and externally. Internally they tighten against the workpiece by means of a draw bolt and conical shaped nut which forces the slotted section to expand. Externally they perform like a cup chuck being closed by means of a hose clamp.
Individual sizes are 1 ¼”, 1 3/8”, 1 ½”, 1 5/8”, 1 ¾”, 1 7/8”, 2”, 2 ¼”. Conical shaped nuts for Expansion Chucks |
For a set of 18 chucks, $350 with nuts and bolts. Individual Chucks, $25 each without nut and bolt. Nut and Bolt set, 5 for $20 |
| Engine Turning Tool Holder | The engine turning tool holder is designed to allow traditional engine turning or guilloche work to be done using a conventional tool slide and quick change tool post. It incorporates the traditional cutter with a guide (geed) immediately next to it. | $150 |
| Crossing Wheel | The Crossing Wheel allows for very quick and extremely accurate phasing of the rosettes without moving the position of the work piece being ornamented. To retrofit the Crossing Wheel to an existing L-W RE the spindle, index plate and rosettes unit needs to be shipped back to Lindow Machine Works for modification. | Call David Lindow to add to an existing |
| Angle Plate Oblique Attachment | The Angle Plate is used either on the Straight Line Chuck or the Double Eccentric Chuck for ornamenting pieces at an angle. The Angle plate can be used in both the horizontal or vertical positions on either of the chucks and the base moves from zero to 90 degrees. | $150 |
| This kit is designed to allow your Rose Engine to rock and pump at the same time. This allows you to create new and exciting patterns with your machine. | $225 |
