October 14, 20187 yr I just bought a new chuck from Rockler. It seemed like a decent deal at $149. If anybody needs another chuck check them out. Not sure how long the sale will last. 1) Nova G3 Chuck with 1'' x 8-TPI Threading (1) Set of 50mm/2" jaws (1) Set of 100mm/4'' jaws (JS100N) (1) Set of Pin Jaws (JSPIN) (1) Safe Lock™ Woodworm screw (1) Instruction Manual (1) T-handle chuck key (1) Set of fastenings (1) Storage case
October 14, 20187 yr For years I used a Nova Midi. The two biggest complaints I had with it was the length of time it took to change jaws and that the jaws needed to be installed/reinstalled in the proper location (jaw 1 in location 1, etc.). For my birthday, I got an Easy Wood Chuck. Haven't used the midi since. Fast jaw changes-no sequence/order of installation and I love the "zoom" ring!
October 14, 20187 yr Sounds like a great deal with all those jaws alone worth over 100. But I prefer SN2 and can get those for 119.
October 15, 20187 yr Author The easy wood chuck is out of my price range. They do look nice though. I have another Nova chuck so I am hoping to get each one set up with different jaws and I won't have to change them. What is SN2?
October 15, 20187 yr Author Found it, super nova. I might try one of those next. I am looking to have a few with different jaws.
