## Overview

The PSI Woodworking TM32 Drill Chuck features a 1/2-inch capacity 3-jaw chuck mounted on a precisely milled #2 Morse Taper arbor, compatible with many midi-lathes. It includes a keyed tightening mechanism for secure bit holding, fits both headstock and tailstock, and is designed for smooth, vibration-free operation. Ideal for drilling, holding small turnings, dowels, and pen mandrels, this durable chuck offers professional-grade accuracy and versatility for woodworking enthusiasts.

## Description

#2 Morse taper mount for Delta, Jet, PSI, and other Midi lathe headstocks and tailstocks. A 1/2-Inch diameter 3-jaw mechanism can be used for securing small turnings or pen mandrels at the headstock, or a drill bit in the tailstock. Accepts a 1/4-20" draw bolt (not supplied) for safety. Will hold drill bits up to 1/2-Inch in diameter. Drill chuck mounted in the #2 MT can be used in either the headstock or tailstock. Tightens with a chuck key(included) for excellent grip. Removed easily with a knock-out bar.

Review: Great addition as lathe accessory - I had been making a lot of tool handles for rasps, files and other handled tools by first free-hand drilling tine holes into my stock before turning. Even clamped for the drill press, the hole never worked out centered or perfectly straight into the handle stock. The obvious solution is using the lathe to drill a perfectly aligned and centered hole. This chuck facilitates that. Although it is a little long for my midi-lathe (I'm ordering a bed extension soon), it is certainly fine for chucking drill bits and drilling horizontally into a handle that is 6-10" long. The machining on the chuck is exceptional and well-balanced, no wobble or vibrations. The clamping action is smooth and the weight and size provides plenty of heft and holding power. The chuck key is properly geared (I prefer over keyless chucks) and delivers plenty of torque to hold the bit securely. The maximum bit size is 1/2" and the holding wedges equally converge on the bit to keep it centered. The #2 Morse taper is precisely milled and no slippage occurs once you give a minor hand push. The depth of the hole can be determined by watching your tailstock spindle markings, if you have them. I haven't figured out at which end, the head stock or tail stock, to mount the chuck for drilling. In the headstock, the drill is spinning into the wood; in the tail stock the would is spinning and the drill is being driven into it. I suppose it doesn't matter but I prefer the latter. Somebody smarter than me can deliberate on it. This is a good purchase and I wasn't disappointed, as you can sometimes be with sight-unseen online purchases. I couldn't be more pleased and the price was acceptable. I will be extending the use of the chuck to hold small pieces like dowels and small stemmed turnings.
Review: Solid chuck - Works as advertised. My only real complaint is that it is pretty beefy. I use it on a Wen pen lathe, and probably should have gotten the 3/8 in version. I've had to finagle things to get the chuck and but to fit on the end if the piece is longer (10" or so). But, no stars off for this - mostly I'm just trying to do things on my little lathe that I probably shouldn't! The chuck itself is well built and seems like it will hold up more that adequately for my needs.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this come with the chuck key**
A: Yes, it comes with a key.  This was a great purchase for me, be sure you have the correct morse taper number.

**Q: I just received this and lost my chuck key. Which one do I order?**
A: I believe it is a standard 3/8 chuck, but i would suggest taking it to your local hardware store and finding one that fits.

**Q: What is the smallest bit size that this will take?**
A: No chuck goes to zero - the jaws at the point where they grip the object would have to be infinitely small in order to do so. However, if this chuck goes down to 1/16" as Chuck Burch suggested, that's probably good enough for most everyone. If you need to go smaller you can always get a Jacobs-type chuck on an arbor for a jeweler's lathe and hold that smaller chuck in this larger 1/2" one. These smaller chucks will easily hold a #80 drill bit.

**Q: Will this fit a Shop Fox w1704?**
A: If your Shop Fox uses a Morse Taper #2, yes.  Otherwise, I don't know what your Shop Fox uses.  Sorry.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value and quality chuck from PSI.
*by N***K on January 29, 2021*

This high PSI quality chuck. Slid right into my Jet JWL - 1221VS live end. Was able to put a drill bit in and make the perfectly straight hole that I needed in my wood turning project. This was one of the cheaper in price ones I could find on Amazon that looked like it could hold its own. It has impressed me since. Well worth the money.
