Default utility chuck

I have been entertaining the idea of buying a low cost utility chuck like
the one offered in the Packard catalogue. I was hoping to get some feed back
from the group about these utility chucks. Anyone using these and how well
do they work?? They are more attractive since I'm spending more of my fun
money on gas!!! Any info is greatly appreciated.

Stay home a couple of weekends and buy yourself a Oneway or Supernova with
the money you save. I don't know anything about Packard's chuck, but others
I have heard about usually leave something to be desired. You get what you
pay for................hopefully.
