Does anyone know if the bushes supplied by Axminster are particular to their own mandrels?
12 months ago I bought a set of Sierra bushes from them but they didn’t fit onto my mandrel. (I cannot remember the make), and It was too much trouble to take them back so I left them in the draw. Recently I bought an Evolution mandrel from Turners Retreat and I tried these bushes but again they did not fit onto that mandrel either.
I have been considering buying some Executive kits from them but I will need the bushes and I don’t want to make the same mistake again.
Happy turning.
