Does anyone have an idea of how much pulling force is required to hold a
detail in a 5C
collet?

As soon as it warms up, I'm going to make a drawtube. At the moment, I'm
thinking a
thrust bearing and hand wheel is how I will build it.

The right hollow shaft cylinder and a deublin coupler has something going
for it too.

Springs might work also, that seems to be how it is normally done
commercially.

Thanks,

Wes

What are you doing? Is this going to be one of your "Hold my beer and watch
THIS!" moments?
