    +1 for the Vermec - I use mine for all the heavy duty stuff but have a smaller cheap unit for the finicky small stuff

    Thanks for all the suggestions in the end I’ve ordered a couple of Vicmac Live centres from Carols wood working supplies, hopeless post have said they should be hear before Xmas (not sure which one).

    But following Dalas remarks regarding the Pen mandrel, yes we do use one of those, or did.
    The one i have, Ive noticed the 7 mm shaft is quite a loose fit in the mandrel saver,causing a few issues.

    So now too hijack my own thread, Ive been looking at some of the fancy Pen mandrel systems.

    Especially the ones using
    Collets does anyone have any experience with these.

    Cheers Matt
