I am relative newbie and have been monitoring the group for a couple of months.
I have a Jet JWL-1236 lathe and at the point of wanting to buy a new chuck. I have looked around on various sites and seen the Nova, Oneway, and Vicmarc chucks. They all seem great but pricey for a newbie.
Does anyone have any experience with this brand of chuck? For the same cost as one of the other makers body alone it seems like a good deal.
I have a Talon and the PSI chuck
Can't be objective because the Talon is the only one I've used, but I like it so much that I bought another one a year later.. have one on the Jet mini and one on the Jet 1442, so I have ya bracketed.. lol
I really like the chuck and the folks at Oneway... bad news, you can't order over the web... good news, you call a tool free number and a real person answers and takes your order, answers your questions, etc...
I'm very happy with the chuck(s) and surprised that i haven't managed to break one, as much as I use and abuse them..
I've added the spigot jaws, which I don't really use that much, and the jumbo jaws, which are great and I wish that I'd of bought them when I got the chuck! Mac
