Zusammenfassung:A jaw assembly for mounting to a lathe spindle comprises a first jaw set (10, figure 1) with at least one axially extending jaw portion (15, figure 2) comprising a channel (16, figure 2) that extends in the same axial direction as the portion. A second jaw set (30, figure 3) is locatable within and releasably attached to the first jaw set via at least one fastener (40, figure 4) locatable in the channel. A method of using said jaw assembly comprises mounting the first jaw set to a lathe chuck, locating the second jaw set with the fastener coaxially within the first jaw set, such that the fastener locates into the channel, and fastening the fastener such that the first and second jaw sets are locked together. The channel may comprise an open-end (17, figure 2) and/or may comprise a tapered recess and the fastener may further comprise a stem (44, figure 4) that is suitable for locating through the open-end of the channel of the first jaw set.
