I occasionally break off a chunk of bakers no sugar, you get used to it. Or half a cup of walnuts in a cup of ice cream, with 1/2 a heaped teaspoon of straight coco, stirred in. Hog heaven but take an extra gram of metformin & 2 anti-diahrea(sp) pills. :) Having discovered that there are ER20 collets with a square socket for the butt of the tap, I refined my fleabay search and found a decent selection, starting at $21, choose your size. But a full set can run as high as $375 USD. Those with a bit of float in case the machine has backlash are generally in the $ohmygawd range. Even the $21 version if a full set is ordered is north of $190. Plus ship of coarse. The one I liked the looks of would be $214 for the full size range set. Throw in another $160 order for 10 more of the TTS toolholders and its beginning to sound like real money. :( And any of it will be a storage problem as they should be kept separated I'd think. And I note that some come with the note that the ER20 nut should be replaced with a special high grip version. Since all of my holders came with the hex flatted nut, not the smaller OD special wrench drive, can I assume the nuts I have are in fact the high torque versions? I did just now get a notice of a refund for the cheap collets I bought that were the wrong size, found another vendor with probably even junkier stuff and bought 10 more 1/8" collets for a tenner, with free shipping. It might warrant some gauging to find low runout in those... Thanks. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
