Teknatool chucks not suitable to woodturning.

OK so Jon thinks he has a bad Nova chuck and nobody called him back from Nova so for him Nova is dead but the rest of you (myself included) who have no problems why don't we put this thread to bed.
😑 No, that is not what I've said. I think the nova chuck is poor quality and it's been problematic for years, and I'm tired of dealing with it, and IMO their poor quality jaws.

It bugs me you are misconstrueing the issues I had with the RMA of my nova lathe with the chuck issues. Nova left me completely in the dark for months in 2020-2021 regarding the RMA, from fall 2020 through the end of January 2021. I've never contacted nova about the CHUCKS. FWIW, after my prior experiences with their technical support, I have no interest in contacting them again, either. I simply want to be done with them.

I would appreciate you not putting words in my mouth and not misconstrueing my situation, Bill.

Otherwise, I agree, we can put this thread to bed. The horse is dead.
