## Vintage Axminster Power Tool Centre Woodturner's Chuck Kit (APTCCC)

## Complete Boxed Set with Jaws & Accessories – 3/4" x 16 TPI

Up for sale is a fantastic, highly sought-after vintage Axminster geared woodturning chuck kit. Renowned by woodturners for their heavy-duty, British-engineered reliability, these classic 4-inch (100mm) self-centering scroll chucks are built to last a lifetime.

This set is in , good vintage condition. It appears to be completely unused "new-old-stock," with the core accessory components still sealed in their original factory film and coated in protective factory grease.

The main component does show some small areas of light surface rust in a few areas, as shown in the photos, but this is just down to being in storage for a long time. I've listed it as used, as I would rather not be proved wrong about it potentially been used previously.
