Nova G3 on sale
« on: November 04, 2010, 07:15:12 AM »
Just thought anyone looking for a Nova chuck might be interested in this sale. I am not endorsing or advertising for them, just thought it looked like a good deal for the money. I would be interested to hear any feedback from turners currently using this one, I have a barracuda2 and wonder how they compare.

Adam has this one and loves it. Don't know anything about the Barracuda!

I have a buddy who bought one of these a few months back. He said it's nice but for the money he would have rather got one like mine (Barracuda2) with all the jaws included.

Thanks for the info guys, guess maybe I'll just go with another Barracuda body seeing as I already have multiple sets of jaws that will fit. I also noticed you have to buy an adapter to fit the Nova to the headstock
