A 1/2" end mill broke off inside of a 1/2" collet and now the collet won't come off the spindle. Usually I just pull out the yoke 3/4" and pull on the handle towards me and the collet just slips off.
Tree mills use a double tapered z type collets that have a special mechanism for clamping on the tool. Here is a video on how the system normally works: Adjusting and using Tree milling machine's Z collet system - YouTube
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
