Now that I've ordered a Jet 1221VS as my first lathe I'm thinking about some of the other components I need to also purchase to fully utilize it. So that you know, and of course this could change once I get into it, my interest today is in turning bowls, plates, platters, Christmas ornaments, candlestick holders and vases.
I'm trying to determine which brand and model chuck makes the most sense from both a versatile and financial viewpoint.
From reading a number of threads on this site and elsewhere, a Nova G3 model 48202 with standard jaws and a Nova brand 1" 8TPI UNC RH insert seems like a very good choice.
Before I order one, I'd like to get input from the experienced turners on this site whether they think a G3 makes sense.
Thank you
Dom
