Hi Mike,

I have this chuck and I use it on my Nova 1624. I have no problems with it and I have a large set of jaws for it. There aren't a lot of different jaws available for it. I caught mine on sale fOr about $80, I consider it to be a very good buy.

I have four of the Grizzly chucks for $99 and purchased the 4" jaws for doing bowls and big HF's. They are the clone of the Vicmarc VM100 and their jaws will fit the Griz chuck.

May I jump in and ask a question.

The chuck looks interesting to me; however, I need 1 1/8 x 8 adapter.
Did not see it listed on the web site.
Thanks for directions for finding a source.

Which lathe uses a 1-1/8x8? I've never heard of that.

Many of the "bigger" lathes (like the PM3520 and bigger jets) use 1-1/4x8.

Yates American and Oliver use 1-1/8 8tpi.

[Greg Ketell]

Interesting. Good to know. Thanks!

Yates American and Oliver use 1-1/8 8tpi.


Also the JD Blount is 1-1/8

Caught this at Amazon.com. I use it as do many others and it has done everything I have ever needed it to do..and some stuff I have yet to do.

Here's a Nova G3 at Woodcraft. I just got their email today and if I didn't already have 2 chucks I would consider this one....

Especially for $149....
