adambaum Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 I tend to like the Nova line, but VicMarc makes good chucks as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozwald Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 I'm a big fan of the Nova's as well. You can get lots of different jaws & accesories for them, not to mention different threaded inserts that'll fit just about any lathe, so you'll only ever have to buy the 1 chuck.

Rick A McQuay Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 I had a Nova and sent it back after a week. U went out a got a One Way and love it. What about it didn't you like, or in what way was the One Way better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Speyerer Posted December 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Isn't the One Way about $100 more than the Nova? Why is it worth the extra dollars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
