I bought a Rikon 1218 on sale a few months ago to see if I'd like woodturning. Now I'm solidly hooked and already planning to get something bigger when I can.
My question is whether there's a reason not to get a SuperNova2 insert type chuck to use with the 1"x8 threaded 1218. I know it's a little overkill for that lathe, but I'd prefer to get a chuck that can be used on a bigger lathe later.
I've already got a 1"x8 G3 chuck, but can see the convenience of having more than 1 chuck when having multiple projects going.
I welcome any and all useful info and advice
