Thread form on Viceroy Wood lathe.

[nodnostik]

Hi to all,
I am considering purchasing an "Axminster Super Precision" wood chuck from Axminster I know that the Viceroy takes a 1.5" x 8TPI threaded chuck, and that Axminster advertise a wood chuck available with a 1.5" x 8 TPI thread. My concern is that they may not be the same thread form. and not fit the Viceroy R/H Nose.
If any one has any info on this I would be grateful as I do not want to purchase the incorrect item.
Thanks to all,
Don

Thanks for your assistance, I thought it would be a whitworth form, I am going to the show this week at Harrogate so I will telephone Axminster and ask them to bring it to the show for me.
What would we do without this forum!!!!.
Regards to all
Don

Re chuck, as you so rightly said no super precision chucks available in the UK, I have finally got my self a chuck, bought it at the Harrogate show, complete with the exert for 1.5" x 8TPI . I am told that other chuck jaws will fit the Patriot. I am not sure but think the Nova Jaws are the same fit.
T least I have got a "new toy" to play with.
