Yes, Kit, it is good to see camaraderie amidst all the chaos!

That collet chuck is a beautiful looking item. And so simple but ingenious creating the radius on the bracket.

I like how you work! plus the big plus is you work in imperial inch's. A BIG thanks

Thanks for your encouragement! I know that inches are not everyone's favourite but I find imperial linear measurements easier.
