Look about the same size as my lathe so should be fine for blocks and stems.

It's the grizzly equivelant of the 920 Jet. I have a scrolling wood chuck I bought fro grizzly with jaws of my own making and they do just fine.
Good luck with your new lathe. I love mine. And there are plenty of upgrades can be done to make them better.

If you do a search on jaws, you'll find plenty of ideas.
