So I picked up my first lathe over the weekend. It is a Nova 3000 DVR. I got it for a great price and it came with a heap of stuff. I don't mind selling and swapping to get what I need. I would like to turn bowls and boxes mostly.
It came with a Titan chuck and 3 jaw sets... Would I be better off with the a Talon size chuck or maybe the new Sorby?
It came with a Sorby live center set ... I don't see the use for all the different shapes... Why would one want this? I think I would like to swap it for the oneway live center.
It come with a few oneway vacuum chucks... It seems to sketch me out to use a vacume chuck... and I need a pump.
It also cam with 3 4" oneway faceplates.. why would I need 3?
It came with a bunch of other stuff including a Varigrind setup so that was exiting as well as a a taylor bowl gouge, steb centers, drive centers and a sweet 8/4 maple stand.
Sorry for all the questions but I am rapidly sliding down that slope.
Thanks,
Jeremy
