Hello all,

I did some more searching and found a few items on Amazon. Rather than
post links that will wrap, I've given numbers that appear to be unique.
If you "search amazon" for the numbers below

B0007CXIQE - indicator holder
B0002PCU4C - DTI
B0007TVKHG - collet chuck set

you should go straight to the items. I would appreciate your opinions
one whether this stuff looks worthy of use.

A DTI of some description seems inevitable, and the holder seem
reasonable (unless it looks like junk to you). The collet chuck is just
enough money that I might wait on it, especially since your opinions
were divegent on them.

There is something else that I might be able to use to advantage. Is
there anything stopping me from holding drill bits (that fit) in collets
vs. a chuck? If not, I might be able to buy a few collets of interest,
say to hold bits associated with few hole sizes I care to tap (again,
it's good to be the guy making the printg) and buy some time for my
wallet to heal before thinking about the collet chuck set.

Thanks again. You guys are great!



Bill




The DTI looks ok and us very usefull, I use a set of endmill holders
instead of collets, collets can slip and I didn't need the quick
change aspect of the collets.. A good drill chuck is a must.
Also a rotary table, angle plate, vee blocks, gee the list is
almost endless.....both sources listed are reputable.
