I thought that, and when I googled yesterday to find out if "Shrink fit" really was called "shrink fit" I found this article: http://www.moldmakingtechnology.com/articles/high-speed-collet-toolholder-or-shrink-fit-tooling Which seems to prefer collets over shrink-fit.. (admittedly at higher speeds, and presumably smaller sizes than being discussed) Whereas http://www.techniksusa.com/metal/SF_casestudy.htm prefers shrink-fit over collet. I suspect that there might be just as many opinions in the collet v Weldon debate. I don't really feel qualified to opinionate on the matter myself. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
