Nova and SuperNova User Ideas Page
Welcome to the Teknatool International User Ideas Page. This page has been set up as a users page to post any ideas you may have using either the Nova or SuperNova Chucks that Teknatool International produces.
We have recently had a large competition where you submitted ideas on using our equipment and we gave you the opportunity to win a SuperNova Chuck and Accessory Jaw as prizes. To encourage more submissions, we have decided to continue this very popular competition and extend it - for good! What this means for you is that for every submission - you gain a better chance of winning our products.
Don't you think a SuperNova Chuck and a Jaw Set of your choice would be great to add to your collection?
If so, then please, don't be shy and submit your ideas to us. We will publish winners each month and remember - the more detailed and original the submission - the better the chance of winning!
Here are the submissions from the winners of last month's competition...
