Default New Proxxon lathe question #2

...
From my reading it looks as though a drill chuck for the tailstock
would be an important thing to have.

The choices seem to be:

Buy the Proxxon one. It costs $45 (more than some entire drills),
but
it would be quick and easy and ought to work....

Thank you! It looks like I could get an arbor from LMS, plus one of
their chucks if mine are not the right taper, for not much money.
