someone in our shop came and asked me for a collet for a boring bar. the boring bar is 3/16 dia. it has a flat along its entire length for set screws to put in the block on a lathe turret as most of you probably know what im talking about.
i said, i wouldnt hold that in a collet. because it has a flat, and although small, i feel like it wont be on center to the collet and doesnt seem to be the correct way to do it.
what say you pros about this?
