Chicom chucks tend to not be of the best quality.....just saying....


Kind of depends. I think that drill press manufacturers and bench
grinder manufactures selling to the consumer market buy cheap chucks and
grinding wheels. Because if they price their tool a bit higher to pay
for a good chuck or wheel, most people will buy their competitors tool
because it is cheaper. But if you go looking for just a chuck, you will
find some good ones at reasonable prices.

However, Jet tends to be on the better side of imported machine

Are they? I heard their quality went to **** when they offshored to
China a decade or so ago. Maybe it's back up by now.
