Returning to wood turning which chuck

[OLD]

Just got a record CL1 to replace my old coronet elf and the screw chuck fits but what modern chuck do I need lets say we start with small items/bowls any help will be appreciated.

The Nova G3 is a good chuck and with the right jaws is quite capable of holding bowls up to 12" in diameter.

If you want to spend a bit more look at the Sorby Patriot which is as good as any in of its size.

I did a mini test of the cheaper G3 chuck for Woodturning magazine and found it to bne a very useful piece of kit, so good that I have kept the test unit, the jaws come between (In diameters) the jaws I have for my Versachick, which is also a very useful item.
