It's not to critical, just good enough to index a long handle. What runout are you looking for? I am not sure, the less the better, 0.003-4 worst case, hopefully better. It would be OK for engraving, but not for precision work. I really do not know what I will be dealing with. i When you get your router, you need to chuck up something that fits the collet that is accurate. Likely your engraving bit will do up where the shaft is biggest. Using a test indicator. http://www.mitutoyo.com/Images%5C002...5C513-442T.jpg Check the router for run out. You might be able to clock the collet to improve run out. Wood is more forgiving than metal I use a .0001" resolution one like that quite often at work. For some things it isn't good enough but for the majority of lining up things it gets the job done.
