Note the arrows now surrounding it. Or, once I found it, pasted from pale moon: <https://www.ebay.ca/itm/7-8-R8-COLLET-PII-Precision-Made-in-Korea-New-Sealed-Box-/292274215740?hash=item440ce69b3c> Thats the same price I paid. But I see this sale claims .0005" TIR. The sale I bought from claimed .00016" TIR. I've made mounting pillows for the ER-40 adapter I bought for the lathe, an r8, chucked in an er-40 collet, with a 7/8" slug in the r8, and pulled about 50 thou into the ER-40 collet, seems to be a good grip. The pillows, made from Mahogany, cut into end grain, but before I clamp it down, I'm going to glue on some oak or ash strips under the cutout to help prevent the mahogany from splitting because it will have a tight grip. Hopefully that will allow a carbide tool to make the slot for the m4 socket head bolt that should lock the brass tap carrier slug from rotating in the R8. The one I tried prior, the whole thing slipped on the table, but it looks as if the carbide tooling can cut it once I get it mounted firmly. I cut into the end grain because that direction should offer the best crush resistance when I tighten the rest of the clamps down. Theoretically. And a heck of a lot easier than carving up a huge block of more $ alu. > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Gene Heskett [mailto:ghesk...@shentel.net] > > Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2018 10:37 PM > > To: emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > > Subject: Re: [Emc-users] Korean R8's arrived > > > > On Wednesday 04 April 2018 21:59:05 Ken Strauss wrote: > > > Link to the vendor, please? > > > > This isn't the same size as I bought, I bought 7/8" but its the same > > vendor.
