I am looking to buy 3,4 and 6 inch Onewaw Faceplates.
Anyone know of good deal like free shipping and club discounts?
Thank you in advance,

Have you thought about Easy wood tools, Craig Jackson has some new aluminium face plates that rock. They seem to be less expensive than the oneway plates, but there is no 6". These are available though woodcraft. I have a set of them and use them exclusively, they seat closer to the headstock then my old ones, the plate accepts no 12 screws, they have allen set screws so you can lock them on the spindle and reverse your lathe. Plus they are CNC machined so they run dead nuts true.

Just a thought for ya.... I have no affiliation with easy wood tools so this is not a sales pitch I just like the product.

What spindle size do you need? I think I have a 6" faceplate for my mini that I would part with. 1"-8

For cheap face plates google, Don Pencil or Bob Noble

2nd on Don Pencil. I have been pleased with mine. They come in all standard size/thread ratios.

if you belong to a turning club, Hartville Tools in Ohio gives clubs 20% discounts for the first year and 15% thereafter. Shipping over 99 dollars is free. They carry most Oneway products and are very reliable.

Hartville doesn't sell Oneway faceplates. I ended up going thru Oneway and they have free shipping. the 3,4 and 6 inch faceplates were about $157.
This was the best deal I could find and it is done Thanks again,
