Adapter Collet
#1
What do you do when you have a metric cutter, but no collets that fit?  You make an adapter to fit a collet you do have.  Dovetail cutter is 12mm, and the 1/2" collet wouldn't hold it tightly enough.  I whipped up this aluminum adapter, bored to size.  Worked well until the Chinesium cutter decided to shed a tooth.  To be fair, I was cutting some pretty hard tool steel.

   

   

   
Full of ideas, but slow to produce parts
