Shear Scrapers
Shear scraping is a recently enhanced method of woodturning which relies on the
presentation of the scraper ar a shear angle. Significant advantages over
conventional scrapers are:
• At 45˚, the slicing action is safer and produces a superior finish
• Sanding is often unnecessary
• The risk of digging-in is virtually eliminated
826H & 827H - 45˚ Shear Scrapers (overall length 181/2”, handle 12”)
The 3/8” square shank sits firmly on the toolrest and presents the cutter at 45˚ to the
workpiece when used in either direction. This is due to the unique cutter seating
position. Each tip can be repositioned several times before resharpening becomes
necessary. Spare HSS cutters (826C & 827C) are available and are interchangeable.

Nova 3000
A well respected, widely used mid range lathe, the Nova 3000 has the
features & quality package that you would expect from a much more
expensive lathe. The Nova 3000 is a true ‘Future Proof’ machine: the basic
design framework is the same as for the DVR 3000 lathe, so it’s
upgradeable to the DVR technology.
16” (400mm) diameter swing over bed, 29” (740mm) swing outboard
(using optional outrigger) puts the Nova 3000 well above the capacity of
smaller lathe options. The Compact version is ideal for a small workshop but
the extendable bed means that this lathe can handle large spindle work too
if required. The swivel head allows positioning work so its comfortable for
you to turn.
The Nova 3000 has an 8 speed range, the very low speeds are superb for
larger and out of balance work - and the higher speeds are great for
finishing cuts and smaller work.

The DVR 3000 produces incredibly smooth turning conditions compared to

other lathes. The unique DVR technology closely maintains speed and the
DVR control actively works to dampen and smooth out vibrations.
Traditional lathe designs can experience vibration from belts and pulleys.
The DVR drive is rugged and dependable - the brushless, solid state rotor,
heavy duty stator windings, industrial grease electronics all combine to make
for a low maintenance, trouble free drive.

Why a Teknatool Chuck?
• The innovators. Teknatool were the first to
design a 4 Jaw Scroll Chuck for Woodturning,
back in 1988. Since then, there have been many
imitators, but Teknatool continues to lead the
way in providing innovative, quality solutions for
Woodturners.
• Most popular chucking range in the world.
Ideal for both professionals and beginners.
• Easy to Use, 4 Jaw Scroll Principle. All of the
Teknatool chucks operate on a 4 jaw, self
centering scroll principle, that is, each Teknatool
chuck has 4 jaw slides, that concentrically
contract or expand to hold the workpiece in the

Hegner LQ400 Copying Attachment

Guided by a stencil this works for both faceplate and spindle work and can be swapped from one to
the other in seconds. The special tooling replicates the profile, which is programmed into the stencil by
tracing accurately on to the work piece. Even sharp profiles are possible. An additional centre sleeve
on the special tooling ensures the cutting tool can be adjusted to the desired diameter. The tool feed
operates automatically and the cutting tool is carried on two ground shafts.

Nova/Supernova Chuck
Accessories
Power Grip Jaw Set
These are awesome jaws which
maximise the power of the Supernova.
They are able to hold work up to 29"
in diameter - and can also hold long
spigots up to 19" long.
Spigot Jaws
Available in two internal sizes - 35mm
and 45mm. These are ideal for long
unsupported workpieces like vases.
The serrated tooth form makes a very
powerful grip that just will not let go.
This also makes them suitable for
gripping square wood. These are
sometimes referred to as Shark Jaws.
CHUCKS /CENTRES
130mm Jaw Set
Essentially the larger version of the
100mm jaws. These jaws are
designed to handle work up to 29" in
diameter. It makes an ideal
companion to the Supernova chuck
as the extra power exerted by the
chuck matches the big capacity of
these jaws. They eliminate the need to
consider larger chucks or face plates.
W O O D
Pin Jaw Set
These jaws are a specially extended
version of the 25mm Jaw Set and are
designed to act like a pin chuck
expanding into a pre-bored hole. This
is very useful when turning free form
edge bowls. The real advantage is that
there is no need to bore to an exact size
as with pin chucks. This makes the Pin
Jaw Set ideal for pepper mills. The

T U R N I N G
longer jaws allow for a very powerful
spigot grip for smaller work like lace
bobbins.
