Sorry for the confusion.
3/4 X 10 TPI? There's a different way to skin this cat. Have you considered a spindle adapter for your 3/4"X10 lathe, i.e. 1" X 8 or 1 1/4" X 8 adapter? That would let you use a Nova chuck with mating insert.
If you call Kirk Nielsen at Third Devil Tools (904-379-1632), he can fix you up with adapters, chucks, etc. He specializes in finding solutions to all kind of "adapter" problems, albeit spindles, arbors, etc.

RE: Chuck thread size? - SceneryMaker - 02-13-2020
I got my cat skinned and learned something in the process. Victor at Best Wood Tools says that the insert-style Super Nova 2 chuck really has a 38 mm diameter by 3.0 mm pitch thread in spite of the fact that Nova tells people (including me a few weeks ago) that it has a 1-1/2" diameter - 8 tpi. This came out while discussing a SN2 to One Way live center adapter. He guaranteed his 38 mm adapter would fit so I bought it. It showed up today and it does fit so Victor was right.
In case you need one, his part number is OLCA M38 x 3 to 3/4 x 10. I want to mount a chuck with Cole jaws to the tailstock so I can glue segmented rings together very concentrically.

Imagine that. On WN??
Looks like you got it covered on your adaptor
