Hi guys,

Finally finding time to get back to playing in the shop and have a few small projects that I would like to hold the material in collets rather than the 3 jaw. I have been searching for a few days and am having a hard time deciding which way to go. The 4MT collet holder is readily available, don't really care if it's ER 20,32 or 40, but have been led to believe a collet chuck is better, but I can't find much in 1.75"x8 TPI. I have a set of 5C collets already if that helps at all.

I would love to hear from someone with more experience than me which way to pursue.

Thanks!
