Advantages of Using A Threaded Hub and Optional Waste Block
Anne Burdick
What are the advantages of using a glue hub for woodturning?
A reusable aluminum threaded glue hub is a handy accessory in woodturning.
- Turn both inside, outside and bottom without removing and reversing.
- Creates more room for shaping bottom or foot as it’s smaller than a 4-jaw chuck.
- Moves project away from the headstock
- No need to lose wood on a tenon. Consume the waste block when parting your project off.
- Aluminum won’t crack or break over time.
- Remove project from lathe multiple times without losing center alignment.
- Lightweight
