6008 Dovetail Chisel Wood Lathe Chuck Accessory

Quickly cuts a dovetail that matches exactly with the dovetailed contour of your Nova Jaws, making it easy to mount bowl blanks onto your lathe. The precise fit and wedging action give the maximum holding power for your chuck. Although other chisels can be used, none have the dedicated shape of the Nova Dovetail Chisel, and they often result in poor dovetail form and improper seating of the jaws.

This specially designed Nova chuck accessory quickly and easily makes the dovetail recess to match popular Nova chuck jaws. The small size and easily controlled scraping cut make it very easy to form professional dovetails, even for beginning turners. Made from H2 High Speed Steel, hardened for durability in demanding turning conditions. Handy mark out scale can be used as a guide to mark out the diameter you want to cut your dovetail to. Pre-sharpened. Turner only has to maintain the bevel edge.
